This is a rare and unusual Military 20 shot 7mm nickel plated pinfire revolver. This revolver is double action only based on the Lefeuchaux model of pinfire revolvers popular on the Continent. The gun measures 9 ½ inches long, 6 inches high with a cylinder diameter 2 ½ inches. The gun is fitted with a 5 inch rifled barrel and a blade foresight and retains most of its original nickel plating. For military use, the revolver is fitted with a lanyard ring. The fully fluted cylinder is made in a single ring of chambers which has been recessed to reduce the weight. The hardwood grips are finely chequered and retained by a single screw. Although there is no makers mark on the gun, each chamber of the gun carries a British proof mark (illustrated). The double action of the revolver works as it should and indexes correctly. NB. As an obsolete calibre weapon, no licence is required to own this item in the UK if retained as part of a collection or display. A 591
