Top Break / Russian Revolvers
Top Break / Russian Revolvers Designed by Major George Schofield to be operated with one hand while on horseback, a break-open pistol was ideal for mounted soldiers in the U.S. Cavalry. Shooters could easily eject all six spent cartridges and reload while on horseback. The top break pistol also proved useful to the likes of Jesse James and Wild Bill Hickok. The No. 3 2nd Model features a blue frame, barrel, and backstrap; and a case-hardened trigger guard. The Top Break 1875 No. 3 New Model Russian was a favorite side arm of the Russian government. Modeled after the Smith & Wesson Schofield, this revolver features a blue frame, barrel, and hump-backed backstrap; walnut grips; lanyard ring; and a case-hardened trigger guard with trigger spur. 3.5 Inch Barrel Top Break No. 3 2nd Model Revolver .44 Russian Top Break No. 3 2nd Model Revolver .45LC Top Break No. 3 2nd Model Revolver .44-40 5 Inch Barrel Top Break No. 3 2nd Model Revolver .45LC Top Break No. 3 2nd Model Revolver .44-40 Top Break No. 3 2nd Model Revolver .38 SP 6.5 Inch Barrel 1875 No. 3 New Model Russian .44 Russian 1875 No. 3 New Model Russian .45LC 7 Inch Barrel Top Break No. 3 2nd Model Revolver .45LC Top Break No. 3 2nd Model Revolver .44-40 Top Break No. 3 2nd Model Revolver .38 SP
