Antique UNUSED Condition .44 Russian European Solid Frame Single & Double Action Revolver w. Holster (+ Vintage Collector Remington Ammo)

This is an exceptionally preserved (99th percentile) high quality built European solid frame revolver, chambered for .44 Russian in single and double action, made circa 1890 based on late-1800s cylinder fluting style. Everything about this revolver speaks quality to the eye, and in the hand it feels the same. As a pre-1893 antique (proven by the Liege proof mark) this handgun can be bought and owned without registration or other meddling if you are over 18. Antique suitable ammunition can be reloaded or purchased online from stores like rustywood.ca, and I can include a vintage box of Remington Kleanbore .44 Russian from circa 1960s to a PAL holder if wanted or drop it out of the deal for $150.

This revolver is in amazing shape, with the lockup and cycling functioning with factory original tolerances. The internal mechanics are in top shape making for an great action. This revolver is clearly a proprietary build by a shop that produced small quantities of higher quality pieces, which was not the most common in Belgium at the time where many manufacturers mass-made lower quality revolvers fast and cheap due to permissive patent laws. I have done lots of digging and can't seem to find who the maker was, but it has the very interesting and novel feature of a frame-mounted ejector rod separate from the cylinder pin where many ejectors from this era stowed in the pin.

The surface is amazing with a dusky blue sheen on the faces and original straw-yellow to fire blue hues on the  ejector rod and cylinder pin, hammer, trigger, etc. The right walnut grips are in fantastic and solid condition with no notable dings, chips, or scratches. Knurling is all intact. The rifling is strong with well defined lands and grooves, though there are some areas of concentrated black powder marring. 

Overall a very scarce high quality built European revolver that has been exceedingly well cared for over the past 130 years.
