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Revolver Modell 1879 and 1883, were service revolvers used by the German Army from 1879 to 1908, when they were superseded by the Luger.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.
