    Arms made under the U.S. Revolver Co. name were cheaper versions of the Iver Johnson line. U.S. Revolver Co. paralleled the solid frame Iver Johnson Model 1900 and the Hinged Frame Safety Automatic models, but did not have the safety hammer feature, they also had some consequent minor changes in the lockwork and a lesser quality of finish. U.S. Revolvers were offered in .22, .32 and .38 calibres, and were sold at the same time as the main Iver Johnson line until the 1940s. The pistols were marked 'U.S. Revolver Co.' on the barrel, and had 'US' molded into the grips. U.S. Revolver Co. Have it checked by a pistolsmith, but should be safe to shoot with .32 S&W ammo. Values are not really high, depend on condition, but $70-$125 seens going rate. Hopefully, Mr. Goforth will be along- his depth of knowledge on Iver's is awesome.
