Hello,
I recently acquired a six shot .22 revolver at a garage sale. I believe it is a .22 It isn't marked. The only thing I can find on it is
Mre diArmes Lt Etienne I believe this is French. Also it has a serial # F37129. Could anyone Identify this Pistol? It looks really old to me.
Thanks for all your help. WTB

  Thanks for the info. The pistol in the link you sent me is what mine looks like except mine has a round barrel. Sure appreciate the help. At least i know now it is a 8mm. WTB

  If it's one of the military type, it should be marked with the year:

  But 8mm is quite a bit larger than a .22, and some were 11mm! Is your gun a rimfire or centerfire?
