Please text anytime 6476871484. Fully functional antique revolver in ready to shoot condition ,very smooth action. No PAL needed. Can shoot 32rf long and short. Comes with FRT RCMP paperwork. Smith and Wesson No. 2 "Old Model Army", .32 RF Revolver This one is in very good condition. With original blue. The action is strong and accurate, and the cylinder indexes and locks properly without play. The bore of the 5-inch barrel is very good, with sharp rifling and mirror bright. The rosewood grips are very good and undamaged. They look like they may have been re-varnished once. SN 59474, very good overall. History & Background Horace Smith and Daniel Baird Wesson acquired Rollin White’s patent (1855) for the bored-through cylinder to manufacture what they originally called the No. 1 revolver in .22 rim fire. It proved to be a rather ineffective little pocket revolver but was nonetheless very popular with civilians as a personal protective weapon. In 1861, just as the civil war gained momentum, S&W decided that they needed a larger caliber revolver in order to be able to convince the buying public (many of them enlisted in the war) that their gun was a viable protective option and as a back-up gun in battle. The scaled-up design was duly named the No. 2 and was nicknamed the “Army”, as it was widely used by military personnel as a personal side arm. Smith & Wesson retained and defended the Rollin White patent aggressively throughout the civil war period, and until its expiry in 1870, and therefore the No. 2 “Army” would be the only American made cartridge revolver used during this conflict (although several “unlicensed” makers added their wares into the fray, such as Uhlinger, Pond and Moore). The model is called “Old Model” due to its frame shape – the square butt and octagonal barrel of the model 1 ½ First Issue, as compared to the bird’s head grip and round barrel of the Second Issue. There is no “New Model” Army. The "No. 2 Old Model" was a popular personal side arm of many officers in the Union forces during the American Civil War, and is also known as the "Army" model. It was first introduced in 1861, and made until about 1874. The "No. 2" refers to the frame size, "No. 1" having been the first, .22 caliber pocket revolver and the "No. 3"'s being the large-frame revolvers. The 1 1/2 was introduced after the number 2, and since it fits in between the no. 1 and no. 2, it was named the no. 1 1/2. The no. 2 was owned by such famous Americans as General George Armstrong Custer and "Wild Bill" Hickok, the marshal of Deadwood...

John Forbes of Liverpool Sawhandle Smoothbore Adjustable Trigger .62 Calibre Percussion Conversion Fine Antique Dueling Pistol
Howdy Townpost! I have a truly amazing one of a kind piece here for sale. I bought this for myself in the US over a year ago and I had it professionally restored and fully repaired. I am now looking to sell it. John Forbes, of Liverpool, was gunmaker to His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, later King George IV. And according to my research made mostly dueling and target pistols, and some small pocket pistols for only 5 years. Those years being 1805-1810. He spelt his name with I or Iohn and later switched the spelling to a J or John based on public records and some of the other examples of his dueling pistols that have sold at auction. That makes this a very rare and finely made pistol. This pistol would have cost a small fortune at the time it was made. Oftentimes dueling pistols come in pairs but it was cheaper to buy just one if they were offered as a single, and should you encounter someone who has insulted your honor and you demand satisfaction from them, they can bring their own pistol to the duel. The engraving is extremely fine, intricate and skilled. It would have taken many dozens of hours to complete and it was all done by hand. The engraving features drums, banners and spears, floral patterns, sunbursts on the base plate and lock, and a pineapple in the front of the trigger guard, which symbolizes wealth and status. Because this gun is a percussion conversion of the original flintlock mechanism the percussion hammer is engraved in a different style by a different engraver in a more simple floral and fish mouth style of engraving with gold inlay. Every screw is engraved to look like a flower and the escutcheons are also each engraved like a wreath. Overall there is a lot of fine detail with some simpler and less detailed later additions on the percussion mechanism and one spot on the side plate. The gun features gold inlay on the hammer which largely worn away. There is silver inlay on the outside of the breach, and a sterling silver wreath styled band wrapped around the base of the grip and a sliver bead front sight. The ramrod tip (which is a replacement) is silver plated brass, so too are the front stock cap near the muzzle, the rod pipe, cross key, and escutcheon around it are too. The grip baseplate is silver plated steel. The workmanship of this pistol is certainly of a quality of gunmaker worthy enough of being the gun maker of the Prince of Wales. The pistol is located in Calgary AB for local delivery or pickup. Or I can ship it too.

Italian Glisenti Brescia Bodeo Model 1889 10.35mm/.44 Antique Revolver
Howdy Townpost! I've got an Italian jewel for you to take a look at here. This is an Italian Bodeo model 1889. These guns are among my favorite antique revolvers. They are a very simple rugged and easy to maintain and repair Military revolvers with one of the coolest safety/loading systems as part of its design. These revolvers are very well designed, and feature the safety, loading/unloading system called the "Abadie System". This system was designed in Portugal, but many European late 19th century designs incorporated it. This particular example is an 1897 production by Glisenti at Brescia. Glisenti made Bodeos from 1891 to 1906. This is considered a tipo (type) A or an enlisted model. The type A had a folding trigger which was considered safer and was issued to enlisted men and the type B was the officer's model and had a trigger guard. This particular gun is considered a late model because it has an internal hammer block safety, which is dovetailed into the hand (pictured). The early model had a external hammer block safety that was prone to breakage. I've personally seen multiple antique examples with broken external hammer block safeties. So it was a good move from a design standpoint to change. The early models also were finished in the white in a similar manner to the French model 1873 Chamelot-Delvignes were. This example is of course blued like the overwhelming majority of the late models. This revolver is in excellent condition mechanically and has minimal wear overall. The grips are in excellent condition and we're refinished professionally. The chambres and bore are in excellent & minty condition as well. And the bore itself is one of the best I've ever seen on a Bodeo, with clean, sharp and shiny lands and grooves. This revolver chambres the 10.35mm Italian ordinance cartridge. This cartridge is very similar to .44 Russian but has a smaller diameter bullet (.422) and a slightly tapered chambre. I have seen these shot with .44-40 bullets that are .427 in diameter. These revolvers were loaded with smokeless from the get-go in 1890 using ballastite, a smokeless propellant. For an additional fee on top of the price I can have the chambres slightly reamed so that they will accept .44 Russian cartridges. That way you can buy an off-the-shelf ammunition without the need to hand load. However these are quite easy to hand load and source components for. The revolver is located in Calgary AB for local delivery or pickup. Or I can ship it nationwide too.

Low Content Wolfdog Puppies For Sale (Kangal, Australian Shepherd, Malamute, Gray Wolf Mix)
Pups born 2023. Photos of the puppies, parents, Wolfdog lineage and ancestors below; as well as the pups probable adult appearances when their ears go up. Pheebe is a female 100% Turkish Kangal who had these puppies. She bred with a male low content Wolfdog. She had 10 pups that survived birth out of 12. So there are are a lot of pups to choose from; 3 males and 7 females. Sold: -Brown Female: Homed -Fawn Male with White Face Stripe: Homed -Blue Merle Male: Homed -Grey Merle Female 1: Homed -Solid Brown Female with small white stripe: Homed Brown Male: Homed -Merle mottled female: Homed -Black & White: Homed -Black Female Wolfy pup: Sold -Red Hidden Merle female: Sold You will get the doggy appearance with slight wolf characteristics such as the mane and long legs and other features. I am doing an agreement to carry on the lineage in the future to who ever buys one of the males. The female he will breed when he’s older will be a Caucasian Shepherd Lurcher mix, for a pup back deal. I have worked on the lineage for years. I would provide a free studding to you for a pup back. Any extra pup I would buy from you; you would have a litter and make money from it, or be able to keep one of her future pups as a family pet from her litter if you wanted. These pups will be for dedicated people, who have a fenced yard in town, or those who live rurally, and are able to provide food, and a loving home to these pups. They have been specifically bred for when it hits the fan, because it will in the coming years and already is. I lived fully Off- Grid and had time to consider which dog breeds would be the best for survival situations. These will be a versatile dog that will be large and able to defend its self and survive in the elements. This mix includes both the strongest and smartest dog breeds, and breeds that are the best for sled pulling and winter. The Dad (Wolfdog) is the most gentle chill dog ever, and the mom is extremely good with kids and people. They will display Dog and Wolf behavior, but mostly dog. The genetics will be 50% Kangal 13% Border Collie 12% Alaskan Malamute 12% Australian Shepherd 10.5% Gray Wolf 2.5% German Shepherd The dad also has an Embark DNA test done. The breeds in the mix aren’t just random or happened by chance, but the Wolfdog lineage has been selectively bred for 50+ years. The breeds in the mix are for a purpose that would create an ultimate off-grid or country dog, that is loyal, strong, resilient to weather, will protect their family, are able to pull and do sledding, take out Coyotes and defend against Bears or Cougars, and be a companion and family dog. These canines will be able to withstand cold winters and hot summers. They will be good with people and in public, but will be able to let you know if anyone comes on your land, and also be able to take out Coyotes if need be. High and Mid content Wolfdogs aren’t protection type dogs, but Kangals are good for that; though they are very good with kids and people, they will alert you to if they sense anything, and if need be (if a bear or cougar came along) will protect you with their life. Kangals are excellent with children and have a long lifespan for a large breed; 12-14 years. Wolfdogs also have a long lifespan, and Collies, Aussies. 15-16 years. Not only are Kangals large and tall, but they are agile, and have very few health problems. They have been used for thousands of years to guard livestock and as wilderness companions. These pups will have a low coefficient of inbreeding, with good genetic diversity. This is an extremely rare mix. It probably hasn’t been done before with the above breeds all mixed and the percentages of each breed. This will also be the only litter between these two dogs. I have a family tree with pictures of the lineage all the way back to 1993 The pups will have good traits from all these breeds, and be more trainable, have recall, and not shy of crowds like some Wolves. (They are only 10.5% so will act like a dog). But they will be able to withstand the winters better, and have a greater genetic diversity, and be more robust than the dog breeds. The parents temperaments are amazing. The dad is very calm, loves cuddles, and won’t run away like many Wolfdogs. He has recall and will listen. He is extremely gentle and has no prey drive or resource guarding at all. Better than a doggy dog. The mother is a calm demeanoured dog that is super loving to her humans, is great with all people. She is good indoors, outdoors, and loves laying and walking with her family. She will protect her family with barking if she senses danger from dogs, Coyotes, or sketchy people that come on to the land. She is a sensitive female and submits to her family, and she is gentle with all people in public. Very stable and calm. She is intuitive, and is gentle with people. She is a sweet girl, and would guard her family if it were the last resort. Both parents have a extremely deep bark. So it’s good to have them around if you are hiking. Her male pups will probably have a deeper bark than both. Most people want to own a high content because of the way they look. But don’t know or have what they need. These ones are easy to raise, can be taken with you places and are like a dog, but have a little bit of Wolf in them that helps with their health. But when you get a Wolfdog, more people out of the general population, of the people who have a good setup or yard, would like the owning of a low content such as this litter. This is because you can take them far more places, they don’t need as much meat in their diet, not expensive, are outgoing, don’t need as much of a huge and expensive enclosure as a High content, they are more trainable and good to live indoors or outdoors, and can be pad trained easily; which high contents do better living outdoors. These parents both do great indoors. Will fall asleep with you on the couch. They will do good in a home and family, that will do training and take them on walks, and will have a yard for them. And of course most importantly, a loving home. Text or call 587-336-6789 for information and details, or to meet pups
