Don’t let Baldy play with it——it might yet be loaded. Then don’t let it dry out.

I was visiting a buddy at the Petawawa military base back in the 1980's... While visiting, they were checking vehicles leaving the base for a 50 caliber machine gun that went 'missing'...
They likely never find that.

Pity that the grip is cracked...
No biggie. Send it to the Youtube weapons restoration expert. :)

It looks like a sculpted turd.

Solid proof that a wheel gun can jam.

Break out the metal detectors and the magnets it looks like they’re paying prime rates for gun steel these days.

One of the most dangerous guns I have ever seen! Guaranteed to give a victim (or user) a fatal case of lockjaw followed by death in minutes without even being fired!!!

It looks like it might be a cap gun, more Saturday Morning than Saturday Night.

How heroic of them! Candidates for the Order of Canada if not the Victoria Cross for sure. Can't wait to see how they handle a Huckleberry Finn slingshot from the 1800's.

That’s an 1880s “American Bull Dog,” .38 cal rim fire. I have one just like it great shape. .38 rim fire ammo hasn’t been available for over 90 years.

“Owl-head” grip is Iver Johnson.

Oops. A better peek shows it’s not an “Owl-head” grip.

A lot of those small late 1800’s revolvers were actually made and rebranded by Iver Johnson. They were actually quite well made and innovative. Gaston Glock did not invent the trigger safety. Iver Johnson did, and he patented it.

You are correct, I wasn’t.
