Modell: 1873
Seriennummer: 1874Adopted in 1873 by Saxony as the first standard issue revolver utilizing metallic cartridges in the German States, the Model 1873 is largely based on the American Smith & Wesson No. 2 design. It is believed all were produced by Valentin Friedrich Langenhan of Zella-Mehlis. Revolver is in the white with tipup octagon barrel, dovetailed blade front sight, notch rear, fluted cylinder, spur trigger, large checkered walnut grips, and a lanyard loop. Backstrap is marked with "1881 12.R.5.3." unit marking. As is often seen this example was converted from rimfire to centerfire for later commercial sales. CONDITION: Very good. Metal remains largely bright with some light areas of patina and freckling. Grips have light impressions. Strong, well defined bore with cleaned oxidation spotting. Cycles correctly.
