It says "Spain" on the bottom of the grip. Says "For Winchester .44 Cartridge" on the top of the barrel. I believe it is a top break revolver. Any idea who made it and it's age? I could find no other markings. Thanks in advance.

Winchester 44 ,Would be a 44-40 Winchester


It is a Orbea Hermanos (Orbea Bros.) a Spanish company and this is a good quality S&W knock off (when new)...I really would not shoot it though

All I can tell is that you have a Spanish copy of the S&W Double Action Frontier in caliber .44 WCF = .44-40 made by somebody who was not proud enough of his work to put his name or trademark on it.

It was probably made sometime 1890-1914.

Resale value is low, quality is low, shooting safety will be questioned.
 
Thanks for the info guys. I inherited the gun from my grandfather and do not plan to shoot it or sell it. Just was wondering what it is. Thanks again
