Original Imperial German M1883 Reichsrevolver by Erfurt dated 1894 - Serial 5857 l MP 34 On 27 December 1944Original Item: Only One Available. This is one of the great romantic era Imperial German Army Revolvers, and this is a rare Navy Issued example. The M1879 and M1883 Reichsrevolvers, or Reichs Commissions Revolver Modell 1879 and 1883, were service revolvers used by the German Army from 1879 to 1908, when they were superseded by the Luger. The Model of 1879 was issued with a 7" 10. 6mm x 25R mm Barrel, which sported a rather fancy ring to the muzzle.
