Item Description: Translate description
44-40, 5 1/8” barrel shortened during the period of use, with a mostly bright very fine bore showing a few small areas of mild oxidation and a couple minor pits with otherwise crisp rifling. This revolver has seen honest use, retaining about 70-75% original nickel finish with scattered flaking to gray-brown patina, light dings and handling marks. Most of the loss is along the gripstraps and left side frame, the butt showing moderate dings and tool marks with no visible serial number present, it seems likely the frame did have the “skull crusher” grip and this was removed for some reason long ago. The original folding hammer spur was also lost to the years and a mostly rigid oversized gunsmith replacement added in its stead. The principal markings remain mostly intact and strong, a few letters of the barrel markings obscured by the rather large added front sight blade. The checkered hard rubber grips remain in about good condition with overall dings and the right panel with more wear showing an old chip at the toe. The grips show some scratched scribblings along their interiors, the numbers appear to be mismatched, and the inside grip frame shows an assembly number “77” while the barrel and cylinder are numbered “8387”. Barrel-to-frame fit is quite good and the action will otherwise require mechanical attention as it does not cycle, the hand is worn and the hammer does not hold reliably. This old Merwin Hulbert has a lot of character. (13B11407-25) {ANTIQUE} (1000/1500)
