I've got 3.....
Down to 2 now - pocket pistols that I picked up over the years, with every intention of fixing them up to use in Cowboy Action Shooting side matches.
I have decided that;
1. I've lost interest and will never get around to fixing them,
2. Gotta make room for MORE projects!
They all have issues, will try to describe what I think they need as best I can.
Gun #1 - Iver Johnson's Arms & Cycle Works Top Break revolver.
.32 S&W caliber, probably 1900-1920s, blued. I believe it to have timing issues, it fires, but not consistently. It came to me in the condition you see it here. It will come with a spare nickel-plated barrel & cylinder and several extra parts.
$135 OBO/Trade
-----------------------------
Gun #3 - Hopkins & Allen "Acme Hammerless No. 1, .32 Cal. Centre Fire"
Kinda neat little gun - has a manual safety located on the top of the frame, just above the grips. Not a top break, but same time period. It appears to have the internal parts misaligned, the mainspring is in the grip frame, but not in place. The gun needs to be disassembled and parts re-aligned. You have to tap out the pins to disassemble, I never have, so the diagnosis is my speculation.
$65 OBO/Trade

SOLD - S&W 2nd Model Top Break revolver.
.38 S&W caliber. Oldest gun of the lot, 1880-1884Was originally nickel-plated, previous owner tried to remove what little plate remained. I got it in pieces, just put in the hammer, trigger & guard and chipped grips to see what it would look like. I believe there some pieces missing/broken and referring to #1, lost interest in pursuing the parts to make it go bang.
Sold to S&W4ME
