Any experts out there? (LOL)

This did have quite a bit more rust on it, I knocked most of it off.

It's a 5 shot, and has a octagonal barrel. When's the last time they used one of those?

Found in an old farm field.

What do ya know? My signature came true!

Thanks for peeking.

Cool find. Closest thing I found was the Iver Johnson American Bulldog: C and R - Curios and Relics - Hand Guns - Guns and Treasures

(scroll down to #3) not quite but pretty close.

I'm pretty sure what you have there is an H&R Model 1905. There are a few other pistols that are very similar, but looking at the grip profile the 1905 is the closest match I can think of. That's a really cool find and in good shape for having come out of farm land!

Thanks for the help folks.

I'm inclined toward this one too. The condition is pretty good too but, I did knock a LOT of rust off it first.

Thanks again!

Take a brass brush to it, and knock off the loose rust, then give it a few coats of clear coat. It'll look really good framed on your wall. That's a really nice find as far as guns go, and I'm just a tiny bit jealous....

Awesome piece for sure I've found bits and pieces of a real gun but never the entire thing.
