markings engraved in handle

reichsrevolvers were a hodgepodge of stuff, almost every major plant in germany made them at some point.

check the serials on all the parts, virtually everything big enough to be engraved should have a number on it.

A damn sight more than $100. You did good, OP

You lucky piece of shit.

>>34779823
Even if it's totally mismatched and has a shot out bore, it's worth a good bit more than you payed. You did pretty fucking good.

>>34780515
fuck yeah
>>34780596
its all matched and the bore is in amazing shape

BLMI is unit marking. I'm no expert (but try the Jan Still forums because they also deal in shit like this). I can't really give you an exact value, but even if you're desperate you could 5x your money no problem.

Hot damn.

You could easily get $800+ out of this. I've only ever seen one at a gunshow in Iowa. She was selling it for $1500.

Alright thanks for the reference

Online I've seen them go for 1700 in a little better shape than mine

>>34779823
jelly as fuck, these can go over $1000 even for one in a less than stellar condition
