[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 3434535, member: 13337"] That would be Margaux,,, She's an 1892 8mm French Lebel. [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/aarondgraham.com_pics_lebel.jpg[/IMG] This one is date stamped 1903,,, That makes her 117 years old now. I bought this revolver with a sock full of ammo,,, At a farm auction back in the early 60's,,, As I remember I paid $10.00 for it. When that ammo was shot up I couldn't find any more,,, But I had always loved the look of the old gal so I kept her around. Recently I found that Fiocchi makes new ammo for it,,, Apparently It's still a popular cartridge in Europe. I purchased 550 rounds a few years ago,,, I do shoot a few cylinders a year through her. Still tight and a very precise shooter. Aarond . [/QUOTE]
