This is conversion to 45 ACP and British .455 Webley ammo. (available for sale online).
but still can shoot original 11mm ammo.
It is 1873 French Service Revolver that was modified for 45ACP / .455 Webley caliber which was readily available during WW2 and was considerably more powerful than original and hard to find 11mm ammo.
This one is in excellent original condition, all the markings are sharp and complete. The serial numbers are repeated on all components: the barrel, cylinder, frame, grips, internal mechanism parts and even the screw heads and escutcheons. Everything matches. The bore of the 4 1/2 inch barrel is as perfect and it is mirror bright and the rifling is sharp. The action is excellent and accurate and very smooth, the cylinder indexes and locks properly. The walnut grips are excellent and show no damage. SN F48866, this one is made in 1875, rated excellent overall.
