Odd picture of a gun


This is the Savage 36CAL 1860 Model Revolver. Doesn't the grip remind one of some sort of 16th or 18th century pistol. This is because the handle is im line with the barrel rather than somehow stuck below it. The hammer is also curious, it has the same swan neck shape that is seen seen on flintlocks. It looks much more primative than the Colt Single Action Army 1873.

Got this picture and others in the set at alt.binaries.pictures.weapons.
