The Hopkins & Allen XL No 6 is a double action revolver that was part of the Series ll collection, This model produced around 1887, as indicated by its serial number. 
Condition:  2 ½” .38 S&W Octagon barrel with a good bore showing areas of light oxidation, very minor spot pin-pitting in the grooves with  strong rifling. The metal of the revolver still retains most of the  original nickel plate finish with the finish fading , some minor scratches, handling marks,  and edge wear.  The original factory hard rubber grips feature the F&W monogram,  shield, and flag  with the  rosette around the escutcheons are in excellent condition with just minor handling marks. Hopkins & Allen acquired the Forehand Arms Co and incorporated some of the parts into their existing line until the new machinery was used to develope a new updated line of revolvers.  The top markings remain crisp and legible. 
Mechanically the revolver appears to work very well in single or double action with good timing and  lock-up

Overall, this Hopkins & Allen XL No 6 revolver is a good example of a rare and historically significant firearm from the late 19th century.
