I pre-inherited this one from my brother. I will let the photographs do the talking.

I've never heard of them, but it sure does look interesting!

Hmm, number 28. Wonder how many were made. Looks like a self cocking mechanism (double action) like a Starr revolver.

Wow, that was an interesting read Hawg!

Seems the cartridges are probably as rare as the pistol.

Nice find Kevin!

Yes, central fire.

Probably bought by the US Military to prevent it being bought by the rebel military.
