Stokes, I've had the gun looked at by two collecting bodies with different answers. One suggesting the cylinder was refinished at some point another noting an inability to distinguish and leaned more on an attempt to clean.Your assertion is that the blueing on this 1917 is the factory original finish, and that it was never reblued nor otherwise refinished?
Indeed and thank you very much. If I had to guess, the value sits right around the $1,600 mark and up, depending on the added value a buyer sees in this firearms story.This is a beautiful piece of history here, I've always dreamed of one of these. I wish you luck with your sale but when I've seen them they were much higher in price.
Thank you GunHound. Well someone must want to be Brad Pitt in Fury right?Your revolver was most likely made in December of 1918. It definitely is not of late 1917, very early 1918 manufacture. If it was made during that time frame
the hammer would have a series of concentric circles on it and you does not have those circles. The grips would also be dished on top and yours are not.
Looks like a very nice shooter.
