old revolver
My wife received an old .22 revolver with the inscriptions on the barrel made in Germany. On the butt of the gun it is stamped GM 2587 or GR 2587 also the barrel has thread for either an extension or a silencer of some sort any help identifying and estimating its value would be helpful please if someone knows something email me! You can see the pics at photobucket by typing yurbabydaddy2003 on the search and it should direct you to see user account. Hope to hear from someone!

Well, we could use a lot more information here.
Is it break-top or swing-out cylinder?
Hammer or hammerless?
Type of finish....blued, nickle, etc.?
Barrel length?
Number of shots?
Give us ALL of the writings on the gun, as well as a description of any proof marks.0 -
My Database says 'FAR' it the Trade name of "Soc.Anon.des Fab.d'Armes Reunies"...on Pistols....Late 1890's early 1900's....Database did'nt say Country of origin..... Not worth much...maybe $100.00 to a collector..

OK, more info. I no longer have the gun in front of me. It reminded me of a South American or Spanish knock-off of a S&W. Swing out cyl., 6 shot, external hammer, 5"-6" barrel. Was once blued (I think) but now is gray. Wooden grips, poorly checkered, small round butt. I recall the hand was on the right side and turned the cyl. in CCW direction. Other than the markings already mentioned, FAR and 38 long colt, I don't recall any. Thanks. 0 -
You're probably right about it being Spanish.....Your discription sounds like a Spanish revolver...
