LHOIST, patented in Cheratte (a town in the Liège metropolitan area), has a barrel fixed to the axis of rotation by a wedge. Below the axis of rotation is an opening allowing the passage of a separate ramrod to load each chamber of the cylinder. It features a finely engraved six-shot cylinder and a wooden grip (strongly inspired by the Colt 1851). Colt granted Toussaint LHOIST the right to manufacture weapons according to the Colt system, with a front-loading cylinder using percussion caps and a loading lever. LHOIST represented the Colt brand in Europe. The revolver is in perfect working order, with perfect cylinder indexing, no play, and good overall condition, retaining traces of its original bluing. This revolver is now very rare and can only be acquired at auction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTotal length 33 cm\u003cbr\u003eBarrel length 16 cm\u003cbr\u003eWeight approximately 890 g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour package will be shipped with a purchase invoice and a certificate of authenticity with tracking and receipt numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(NO SHIPPING) to (ROMANIA AND BULGARIA)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeapon classified in category D2 § e by decree no. 2018-542 of June 29, 2018.
