Description:
BUFFALO Marked HOLSTER w Iver Johnson .38 Revolver

Early 20th Century Self-Defense Gun

Here we present an Iver Johnson Arms & Cycle Works Safety Automatic Double Action Revolver in .38 S&W, made circa the early 1900s in Fitchburg, Massachusetts. The production run for this revolver was 1897 through 1908. Iver Johnson was a U.S. firearms, bicycle, and motorcycle manufacturer from 1871 to 1993. The company shared the same name as its founder, Norwegian-born Iver Johnson (1841–1895). Iver Johnson & Martin Bye both cut their teeth with Ethan Allen, then started their own company in 1871. The revolver was a small, sturdy, well-built self-defense weapon, ideal for potent conceal and carry in the closing decades of the tumultuous 19th Century continuing on into the years leading up to the Roaring Twenties.

This one comes with its original leather holster with a buffalo trade mark on the belt loop. The holster is modestly hand-tooled on the front and remains in very good condition, lacking only the stud with which to close the flap.

The overall condition is very good. 40% of the blue finish remains with a gray patina throughout. The markings are clear. The trademarked hard rubber grips are in very nice shape. The front sight is absent. The bore is very good with sharp rifling. The action is excellent.
