Not sure exactly the year of manufacture, but most research indicates it's 100+ years old!

I suppose that I should add a S&W Model 1917, it is 105 years old . It isn't the best example, but far from the worst.

I have a few varied century plus guns. My sentimental favorite is my Third Model Perfected. Then there's a couple of shooter grade Triple Locks.

 

[martin08]

That one shooter grade looks like one good shooter.....

Here is one from 1918

Lots of English proof marks but none military.

This one is from 1914,

It has only has one English proof,

My oldest revolver

It was used in the American Civil War.

Rifles will be another thread.

A second hand ejector in 455 caliber shipped from S&W to Winchester July 29, 1915

My M1903 Springfield mfg 1918. Not sure if it saw action in WWI, but was most likely ship's arsenal in WWII. Then shipped off to Greece under Lend/Lease during the Greek Civil War.

1915 Mosin Nagant M91 infantry rifle. Finnish captured during Russia's expansion effort to gain a sea port. What is unique about this rifle is it still retains its Peter the Great royal stamp.

Both guns are still functional and I've taken them to the range. If only they could tell their stories.

German Mauser 71/84

What a beauty ! Looks like it has been professionally restored to museum quality. I have always wanted one and the reloading necessaries to shoot it. I guess I will have to look thru my collection to find one to post. It will be difficult to choose. Thx so much for posting this one. I love it.

Here's my 1914 German MG08 Maxim water cooled, belt fed, machine gun. She was manufactured at Spandau Arsenal in Berlin. She's a veteran of WWI, amnesty registered, and fully transferrable. She shoots just fine using Romanian surplus 8mm ammo. But, she is one heavy baby. These are definitely crew served weapons.

1891 F. Bannerman 12 gauge. It belonged to my great grandfather, really poor condition but seems to function ok. I'm told they shot a 2.5 inch black powder 12 gauge round.

My late grandfathers handgun is a .32 Hand Ejector Model 1903, 5th Change. The serials in this model range up to 263,000. Based on that, I'd guestimate it was shipped in 1914-15.

Great, great contributions everyone!

Here's a semi-auto from 1919. They used to make pistols look elegant.
