Got this from an uncle today. Only word I can make out on the frame is “1876.” Not sure if that’s a year or a model.
The grips have been worn very smooth. Trigger guard is filed off. Front sight and the spring pin for removing empties are both removed. My guess is someone carried it under a belt. Not in a holster. Didn’t want anything to hang up.
The grips appear to be plastic. Which probably means it’s not as old as it appears. But the plastic is worn completely smooth.
It appears it’s a 44 magnum maybe. A 45 colt shell wouldn’t fit in the cylinder. But not by much
Kinda neat
