Description

4/1/26 - This is a Japanese Type 26 revolver. The Type 26 or Model 26 "hammerless" revolver was the first modern revolver adopted by the Imperial Japanese Army. It was developed at the Koishikawa Arsenal and is named for its year of adoption in the Japanese dating system (the 26th year of the reign of the Meiji emperor, i.e., 1893). The revolver saw action in conflicts including the Russo-Japanese War, World War I and World War II. This one has retained roughly 85% with areas of thinning along the barrel and both sides of the frame. While there isn't a ton of actual finish loss, there is spotty brown patina/oxidation on most of the gun. A couple of areas of minor pitting on both sides of the frame as well. Fitted with original wood grips. Mint bore.
