An early Belgium Copy of a Smith & Wesson Frontier style First Model Double Action Revolver in .44-40 Winchester cartridge.
It is marked For .44 Winchester Cartridge on the top of barrel flat and marked, Belgium on the left side of the barrel. The serial number 9894 is marked on the right side of the frame. The barrel measures six inches and has a bright shoot-able bore. This is a top-break, auto-eject, double action six shot revolver based on the S&W Patent Style. The action functions fine and lock-up is tight, single action also works well. There is no pitting or rust on the gun. The nickel finish is about 50%. The hard rubber grips are in very good condition with no cracks or chips. The lanyard ring is missing but the stud for it is still there. This would make an interesting addition to the Smith & Wesson collection to show the period patent infringements of the day, c1870's. It is a piece of history that you can now own at reasonable price. You can find these advertised in the Sears catalogs of the 1890s.
