As I said in other post. The light on my balkony was very good. So i made some pictures of my collection.
This is a so called Levaux revolver. It is a simple top-break revolver made in Belgium. The calibre is about 9mm The lock is a very simple Levaucheux lock wich is in use with almost every cheap made pinfire revolver. It has a ring extractor. I do think it is refinished at some piont. But it is still a revolver wich belong in my collection.

Very nice! I assume it is a Center or rim fire, as I do not see any holes for the pins and the hammer swings much lower.

Compared to refinished revolvers in the US, the lines are all crisp! And the hammer looks clean and bright nickel or chrome.

9mm would be too small for the combat military troops in that time frame, would that be a Police issue gun?

Thank you for sharing you collection with us! I would love to see more, and hear your comments.
