Anyone have a G.H. Daw Revolver? My vote for ###iest revolver. Feel free to post yours8) I would love to find one.
"A five-shot, double and single action revolver, by G H Daw, who described it as being 'the best, cheapest, most simple' and perfect weapon offered for sale. It was actually a very good pistol, being well made and handsomely finished. Its production required a large proportion of hand work, so was unsuitable for producing in great numbers. Although not much used as a military weapon, it was very popular as a self-defence arm."
Here is another one of Daw's creations
G.H. Daw London "Revolver with Knife" .38 cal. C.F., six-shot rd. cyl., 4 1/4" oct. bbl. Double action, two-piece checkered wood grips, shell extractor screw in metal butt cap. This revolver is fitted with a 17" tapered steel blade. Top barrel strap marked G.H. Daw 57 Threadneedle St. London.
