I recently bought this Allen & Wheelock .31, sidehammer 5-shot percussion revolver. The trigger guard doubles as the loading lever. The cylinder has a game and forest scene engraved. The gun is pretty rare but not too valuable.
The backstrap has the name of a previous (original?) owner but I cannot make it out. Any suggestions on how to highlight and read the lettering?
Has anyone ever worked on one of these guns?
