-Originally a Pirlot Frere pinfire revolver from Belgium, converted to .44 Russian. As this is an open top revolver, light black powder loads only (10-12 grains FFFg)
-Uses a hollow base .430 bullet, or a heeled .438 bullet. Can sell the mold for the heeled bullets as well, otherwise a hollow based regular .430 bullet can be used.
- 95+% original bluing.
-Ornate silver pearling and hashmark pattern.
-Mechanism is excellent. Works in single and double action. Timing and lockup are great.
-Rifling looks like it was cut yesterday.
Overall in excellent condition for an Antique status revolver in an accessible caliber.
