I don't have the revolver as this was a question asked by a friend to find out more about it.

Looks like the second one on this page. The one shown is pretty mint and is listing in at $900.

Shame you didn't ask earlier about it. The late treasurer in my Lodge was a gentleman named Ray Allen... yeah, those Allens. Ray passed away last year.

Wow great information already-- you guys are quick!!

That is too bad.

I believe the company is no longer existant as the information you guys provided me was the most yet- my web searches resulted in nothing.

I know my friend is not fond of the revolver (just something that fell in his lap) and was looking to see what the going rate was if he was too put it up for sale.

Nice pistola! Tell him to treat the box gently, it's probably worth almost as much as the gun.

Yes I told him the same thing... If anything but it away in a safe until he decides what to do with it.

I love seeing original paperwork and box - just makes it feel like a real piece of history.
