The first gun has no visible manufacturers marks. It has a 5" barrel, single action, wood grips, metal grip cap with lanyard and .46 bore. Needs mechanical attention, loading gate does not lock. The second gun has no visible manufacturers mark. It is a six shot, double action, .44 bore with a 6" barrel, walnut handle and engraved frame. Grips are very good. Cylinder indexes but needs new trigger return spring. The last gun is stamped "E. Lefaucheux" and was manufactured in Belgium with Belgian proofs. It is a six shot double action with a 5-1/2" barrel, .44 bore with checkered wood handles. Missing rear sight. Handles have worn smooth and have a light crack on the right panel. Swivel missing. Indexes and locks up perfectly. All three guns are basically dark brown patina. Each will require a little work to get back up to snuff. These revolvers were very popular with the Confederacy during the Civil War and have an interesting history in the both the U.S. and abroad.
