I don't think it's been fired outside the factory, but there is no way to prove that. If it has it wasn't very often, and I haven't fired it yet. Haven't decided if I'm going to or not.
You said it might never have been fired outside of the factory,and as old as it is,that a treasure in my mind's thinking. And it's a beautiful revolver. Thanks for sharing!
