3/21/23 - This is a nice example of a Japanese Type 26 revolver. The Type 26 or Model 26 "hammerless" revolver was the first modern revolver adopted by the Imperial Japanese Army. It was developed at the Koishikawa Arsenal and is named for its year of adoption in the Japanese dating system (the 26th year of the reign of the Meiji emperor, i.e., 1893). The revolver saw action in conflicts including the Russo-Japanese War, World War I and World War II. This one is all matching and has retained roughly 75% of its high polish finish. There is wear around the muzzle, spotty discoloration along the barrel, and noticeable finish loss on the cylinder. An area of light scratching and minor pitting on the right side of the frame. Excellent fire-bluing on the hammer. Nice wood grips. Bore is like-new.
