Combination Pinfire Revolver and Cavalry Saber

  • Dated: circa 1870
  • Culture: Belgian

For horseback soldiers needing to combine a handgun with their saber, this circa 1870 combination arm was likely made in Belgium. The revolver is a six-shot pinfire design that is capable of being fired from the same grip position that is used to hold the saber.
