PRESUMED LATE BRUN LATRIGE, M1890, WITH SQUEEZE ACTIVATION AND SAFETY.

PRESUMED LATE BRUN LATRIGE, M1890, WITH SQUEEZE ACTIVATION AND SAFETY. SN 2. 5mm Brun. Most Brun Latrige repeaters are actuated by a trigger ring. The right side of this pistol appears as a Brun Latrige but with a squeeze cocking bar. The left side of the bbl extension has a long rotating safety. Moving the safety up blocks the cocking bar; moving it down allows the cocking bar to be depressed. As the cocking bar is squeezed the bbl moves back to pick up a cartridge from the magazine while simultaneously retracting the firing pin that is released upon completion of the squeeze. Onto the back of the frame is a wood palm swell, checkered over the entire surface, secured in place with a single screw. Accessing the magazine is through a floorplate on the bottom of the frame. The body of this repeating pistol is blued while the mounted components and safety bar are nickled. PROVENANCE: Joseph J. Schroeder, Jr. Collection. CONDITION: Pistol shows moderate wear from use and handling. Original blue remains on about 70% of its surface. The nickling has fared somewhat better though the tensioning bar mounted to the right frame has oxidized to a mottled gray-brown. Bright bore with shallow rifling and mild oxidation. Perfect mechanics. 4-48531 LMA78 (2,000-3,000)

Auction: Firearms - Fall 2013

Please Note: All prices include the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium, which is paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price. The prices noted here after the auction are considered unofficial and do not become official until after the 46th day.
