French M1892 Revolver
1893 St. Etienne (MAS) production
This is one of the most modern antique status pistols, they were used throughout both world wars and into the cold war by police. Ammo is available commercially and it is cheaper than 44 Russian or 455 Webley.
It has a swing out cylinder, modern safety features, and boasts superior accuracy to other contemporary revolvers.
I have shot this revolver for a few hundred rounds and I confirm it works fine. It can run 32 S&W but with inferior accuracy and occasional failure to catch on the ejector mechanism due to smaller case diameter.
Asking $2750
