Rare And Desirable Forehand & Wadsworth New Model Army Revolver C. 1880

A Rare And Desirable Forehand & Wadsworth New Model Army Revolver Serial Number 5xx Circa 1880.

6 and 1/2 inch round barrel. .44 Russian. These rare revolvers have been traditionally classed as a “Secondary Martial” without substantiating evidence. Nickel finish.

A full dimension example with some original finish remaining, good bore, and matching numbers on both gently worn original walnut grips. The reviolver showing careful Western frontier use. Full entirely stamped long barrel address in excellent condition.

This is a most attractive and very rare big frontier revolver that doubtless competed with the legendary Colt Single Action Army. Don’t miss out on this one.
