Hello members and guests, Since starting off my detecting in the 80's have viewed old revolvers and winchester rifles that prospectors have found. Always dreamed of finding one myself and at the recent forum meet at Ora Banda my dream came true. This old revolver was sunbaking in the bush, my guess it is a 30 caliber revolver, maybe someone can positively identify it even though it is badly corroded. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Yes, Was very happy to find one after all these years. Feel sure you have more chance of finding a specie than me a 10ozer. Cheers Peter |
