Merwin & Hulbert Revolvers

[Norweger]

I just love these revolvers. Such a shame that they went out of business. Hard to believe that these were made in the 1880s when you compare them to other revolvers made in the era.

Think i need to get one.

Most engraving on M&H revolvers is done with tapping. On S&W from the era it was done by carving.

Found one i was thinking about purchasing on gunsINTERNATIONAL.com. Ask seller if he'd be willing to ship here: Nope.

Would these revolvers be considered "curios and relics" due to their old age?

I don't know what the criteria is for being called that, what i do know however is that they were all made in the 1880s and are thus free from any registration.
