I picked this little cutie up at an auction today, it's not marked as a Colt so I'm guessing it's a Metropolitan.
The fit and finish are every bit as good as a colt and the gun is in a condition that is almost beyond belief.
There's no pitting anywhere, the bore is slick and shiny, and the chambers are clean. The timing is spot on.
Any insights on the revolver are welcome. I really went to the auction for a couple of old caplock rifles but when this little revolver came up I figured someone would want it because I'm not a revolver guy.
