    Help identify this pistol

    Found it in a lot sale. It's just a wall hanger but it would be cool to know what it is.

      Has some marking on the top of the frame but not legible.

        Interesting revolver. Definitely of European decent. It looks a bit like a Webley R.I.C. No 1, although I'm pretty sure it's not.

          I'd clean it up, and shoot it. Then hang it.

            It actually really looks like one of those. But I don't think it's shootable anymore

              It looks similar to a Italian Model 1889 Type I Bodeo revolver. But the one I saw had a fluted cylinder. I agree it is European, and I would assume its pre-1900. Other than that I dont have any useful information. Maybe Google pre-1900 European revolvers and see what turns up?

                Okay doing a little more research it might be a Lefaucheux. Used by basically everyone in Europe. Ive come across German ones, French ones, Swedish ones, Italian ones, etc. No readable markings on it at all?

                  On top of the frame is some markings but not readable at all. I would have to remove some of the rust. First letter sort of looks like an "L"

                    Looks like a Royal Irish Revolver, but the frame is little too big.

                      Similar, but not exact

                        Well it's not a Lefaucheux, and so far the Webley 89 vision mentioned is the closest thing

                          Looks a variation of this Belgian make. Note the cylinder and barrel.

                            ^Looks pretty darn close to me.

                              Yeah, that looks almost spot on.
