Description
Single-shot firearm mechanism component, consisting of a heavy U-shaped receiver frame constructed of polished brass or bronze, housing a cylindrical steel breech plug or chamber insert. The steel component features heavy external threading and grooving along its length and a rectangular cutout at the forward end, suggesting a specialized loading or locking mechanism. The assembly bears the serial number 651949 stamped clearly on the right vertical face of the brass frame. Proof and manufacturer markings on the opposing face include CN, CIP, PN, and a distinct circled logo, indicating adherence to European proofing standards, likely Belgian or Italian. This component appears to be the core action of a revolver.
