How revolver saavy are you? Can you name this revolver Mfg. and model #?
I thought the same. I found this in a search. This is what I thought it might be. I was wrong.Looks French.
I don't know why
They probably shoulda stuck with the prototype....It's Colt's prototype for the worlds first successful double action, swing out cylinder revolver, made around 1884.
The design was never produced as other then a prototype, an improved version was marketed to the military and commercial market in 1889 as the Colt New Army & Navy models.

The pull back cylinder release was an improvement?If it’s a Colt, I guess you had to pull back on the cylinder release, very confusing.
IIRC it's based on a French or Belgian French design.Looks French.
