Does anyone know who made a small .32 caliber 5-shot break top? On the top of the barrel reads "National Arms Co. N Y, USA". No other writing, except serial numbers in the 20,000's.
From what I've been able to find out was that National Arms Co. made a front loading cartridge revolver during the civil war until they were bought by Colt in the 1870's and they only made derringers after that? And some guys called Crescent also made shotguns under the name National Arms Co....
So who made this? I can't find any other info on this National Arms Co.
Here's the only good pictures I was able to take :
I thought it might help to take a picture of the trigger since I've noticed various break-top triggers look completely different.
thanks!
