Price realised:
US$900
Beschreibung:

.32 caliber. 2.75" barrel length. SN: NSN. Four-barrel turnover percussion pistol with double hammers and triggers. Item shows a bright finish with weak markings indicating it was polished at some point. Item is of all metal construction. No maker mark survives but weak scrollwork visible on grips and sides of frame. A thumb actuated release on tang unlocks barrels so they may be turned over. All four barrels show rifling. Condition: Good. Bores are dark with patina throughout and some active oxidation visible. Overall metal finish is bare gray with some spots of gray patina and oxidation around nipples and edges of frame. Barrel release is stiff from internal corrosion as are triggers. Barrels are able to unlock and turn. Hammers can be cocked and released but are sluggish.
