Nice looking pieces - refresh me on that top revolver, I've seen one somewhere before but can't place it?

Not 100% sure but it's most likely an early galand

Still have to do more research when I find the time got some antique gun books so I should no more soon!

I would say it has the Galand extraction system, but the model eludes me.

Neat revolver, thanks for posting. I've seen one of those somewhere, at sometime; not something you forget!

Extracts very like the early Enfield revolver.

Looks like the lever is adapted from the rammer on the Beaumont-Adams.
