I think I posted about seeing aIndian with a Mk III Enfield on an episode of the Lone Rangers few days ago. Well flipping through channels today I hit on another episode. A fake European count was trying to swindle some ladies. I took a screen shot. Anybody recognize this pistola?

Looks like a LEFAUCHEUX pin-fire gun, or very similar.

Has the Mauser-like grip, and break top thing going, and looks a lot like

others made by that outfit in France circa 1865.

Watching a Bruce Lee movie and a guy was going to assasinate someone through a window. 1873 Winchester.

That makes a lot more sense than an 1880s Kiowa with a SMLE. :lol:

I'm going to suggest that it is an 11mm Model 1870 Austro-Hungarian Army Service revolver designed and manufactured by Leopold Gasser.

 

The middle finger seem to indicate a trigger guard spur, but I don't recall such a spur on the 1870 revolver.

 

That picture just isn't sharp enough to tell for sure
