Sold ITALIAN MODEL 1889 LIGHT REVOLVER

HERE IS A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF THE HARD TO FIND RARE MODEL 1889 LIGHT REVOLVER. THIS MODEL HAD A SHORTER BARREL THAN THE MORE COMMONLY ENCOUNTERED EXAMPLE AND WERE MORE PETITE. THIS IS A 1921 DATED EXMAPLE AND WOULD HAVE BEEN ISSUED AND USED DURING WW2. THESE GUNS WERE STANDARD ISSUE WEAPONS IN BOTH WORLD WARS, THOUGH THEY WERE COMPLETELY OUTMODED BY THE OUTBREAK OF WW2. FIOCCHI STILL MAKES AMMO FOR THESE PISTOLS. THIS IS A VERY CRISP EXAMPLE WITH A DECENT BORE. IF YOU COLLECT ITALIAN WW2 WEAPONS THIS WAS AN IMPORTANT AND WIDELY USED SIDEARM AND WOULD LOOK GOOD WITH ALL OF YOU BERETTAS.
