Default Re: supposed german ss revolver

RJay, I would suggest that this is not a Nagant style revolver, but a copy of the Webley "Royal Irish Constabulary" type revolver. It was also very popular with Belgian gunmakers.

Because both of these were double-action gate-loaded revolvers with ejector rods that stowed away in the cylinder axis pins, they have some similarities, but to my eyes, this is more RIC-styled. Just my two cents, of course.
