Swiss Ordonnanzrevolver 1872/78
The Model 1872 revolver (Ordonnanzrevolver 1872 or revolver d'ordonnance modèle 1872) was the service sidearm of the Swiss Army. It was later refined to the Model 1872/78 revolver. Approximately 600 were manufactured in Belgium by Pirlot Frères.
In 1878 the Swiss adopted the 10.4mm centerfire for their new Model 1878 revolver and most of their 1872 revolvers were adapted to this cartridge and named the 1872/78 model. They operated in both single action and double action, with empty cartridges individually ejected by an ejector rod.
The Swiss Army Revolver 1878, which serves as a size comparison in some pictures, is not included in the price.
