$475 shipped anywhere. Antique status. No pal. No registration. Has half & full cocked. Locks up very good. Indexs but Timing is finicky. Comes with RCMP antique paperwork. Comes completely apart, nothing seized togeather.
Great cheap fun. Affordable.
The patina/ blued is about 95% with some remnants of nickel or pin prick corrosion.
Yes reloadable 32 RF long brass are available 10 for $55. I wouldn't hesitate to live fire this one.
I've also got a bunch more. Look at my other ads. This is the worst one but it fires. Nothing damaged, unlike the Victor 2/3s recoil shield hole.

Indexs but it's different depending on the angle and how slow or fast you work it. I can get it to time good 2-3x when worked slowly. Other times it over rotates a hair.
Ultimately no idea why it overtimes 50-60% & then other times works perfect 3x in a row. Highly doubt it's the cylinder stop because at rest, it's good, at half cocked, it's good & at cocked it's good.
The gun fires because I've shot it, twice.
Has a new* repro latch spring. New* vintage main spring. New vintage handspring & new * repro cylinder stop spring.
Final sale. No return. ** timing is not always perfect**
