My Glisenti model 1889/1922
Just arrived in my collection. A Glisenti model 1889/1922. Actualy the revolver is made by Castelli. Caliber is 10.4. Condition is great.
The revolver has a so called Abadie safety feature. When de loading gate is open the sear in the hammer is pushed backwards.
So, when you pull the trigger only the cilinder will rotate. The hammer will not cock at all. This device is also to unload the revolver.
You can turn the cilinder with the trigger and with the other hand use the ejectorrod. It is a very sturdy made revolver.
The lock is a so called warnant lock. Almost the same what you will find in a Colt Python. But the trigger pull is not that silck as the good old snake.
