    Waffenfabrik Bern 1878 Swiss Ordnance 10.4 mm black powder revolver

    The kind of stuff you find in grandpa's attic here in Switzerland













    With the semi auto successor also from the attic (Waffenfabrik Bern Parabellum 06/24 in .30 Luger / 7.65 mm Parabellum)




    The 10.4 mm Swiss is a metallic centerfire cartridge, with a heeled bullet (like .22 lr), which means that the bullet is the same diameter as the case, and has a narrower "heel" portion that fits in the case.

    Excellent. Appears in very good condition as well.

    I would trade you attics. We have some old Christmas lights I think. ( :
    A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.

    Now that's an awesome piece of history (the successor is too), and in what appears to be near-pristine condition too!
