unique revolver found

[JamesBondaka]

A friend and I found this in an old house. I don't know anything about it or have ever seen one. Do you know anything?

Thanks

Just a guess, but Belgian made pinfire. No marks?

You nailed it ! It's a Belgian Pinfire and judging by condition big bucks and a nice find ! I wish I could find a old house like this ... all the old houses I've searched in the past turned up nothin' but dust bunny's !
Very Cooll , Woodstock

Let us know the value when you find out. Very interesting find for sure

Let us know the value when you find out. Very interesting find for sure

Sure will! I did find some manufacturers markings and also a very very low serial number so it could be something good

 

[JamesBondaka]

It appears to be a E. Beaumont revolver
I can't seem to find another one like it

 

[JamesBondaka]

Its all there.

Heres another pic of the markings. I have taken it to 3 gun stores and yes they say its Belgium and pin fire but that's all they know

 

[JamesBondaka]

Well guys it looks like I will find out what its worth after all. Pawn Stars TV show has shown a interest in this item....so we are trying to work out the details and then then negotiation follows. I will let you know

Very interesting. .. i think they can only buy guns older than 1898 or something like that. ... good luck. .
