Looks like a Russian 1895 Nagant gas seal. Does the cylinder move forward when the hammer is in the "fired" position?

The trigger guard and cylinder pin arrangement says Belgium to me. 0 -
I have one very similar to that and it is Belgian. Kind of copies some ideas from the Nagant, Bullldog, and Trantner patents. Look carefully for an ELG and crown proof. 0 -
I vote Belgium knockoff. 0 -

This ^^^^^, I had one years ago [;)], or something very similar.0 -
The original was the Royal Irish Constabulary revolver. The Belgians made tons of copies, usually in caliber .320 European (aka .32 Short Colt)
A couple of the features include an unusual ejector- pull the rod out of the cylinder pin, swing it to the side, then push the rod back to push out fired cases. The "scalloped" cylinder- scallop closed at both ends- is typical Belgian.
Take a REAL close look, use a magnifier, bet you will find an ELG in an oval mark- proofmark from Liege Belgium. I have one of these in the back of the safe.0 -
Looks like a Veranessaneckakokokoff Model 3 Type VI Mark 2 1/2 style C Version 4 with the modified #12 Morse taper on the ejector rod.
Well actually, I heard something like that at a flea market, once, from a guy who was also selling clothespins and used meat grinders.[:D][:D][:D]0 -
