    Question Anyone able to ID this revolver? Poss Unwin & Rogers

    Hi folks,

    I've recently added this little chap to my collection but am unsure exactly who it is...... Its a 5-shot percussion cap revolver with nice proof marks all over the barrel and chamber but no makers details. The only thing resembling a serial number is a '52' stamped to the front part immediately underneath the barrel.

    Anyone seen anything like it before?

    Having spent an inordinate amount of time trawling through antique gun sites the only things I've found remotely resembling it are some Unwins & Rogers (Sheffield) revolvers; they all have this rather distinct shape with back swept grip and rounded hammer. Trouble is... they were all signed!
    Any pointers gratefully recieved!
