Collector Information Page

BRONZE PINFIRE GUNS For over 15 years I collected and studied Bronze Pinfire Guns. They ranged from the large 12MM revolvers to as small as 5MM revolvers. Most of the Bronze Pinfire Guns were 7MM revolvers and 7MM pepperboxes . The revolver shown below is one of the pieces from the collection.

_

7 MM Bronze Pinfire Revolver has very nice floral engraving on the frame and cylinder. The barrel is 3.4-inch long and the over all length of the revolver is 7.5 inches. Grips has nice checkering and are very good condition. Loading gate is missing. The gun does not fuction but all the parts are there except for the trigger return spring. I have never taking the gun apart to fix the problem. This is the first bronze pinfire gun that I found back when I was trying to collect all types of pinfires. The function of the gun is poor but the outside condition is very good and should be restored. MARKINGS: Liege Belgian Proof mark is located on the side of the cylinder but there is not inspector's mark (removed during engraving?). The letters DC in old English script are stamped on the right side of frame along with the numbers 2047 (see photo below).
