Who made a 32 caliber revolver with a owl on it?

American Handgunner, Nov-Dec, 2004 by Mike Cumpston The ornately figured hard rubber grip engraved with the characteristic Owl Head confirmed it an Iver Johnson Hammerless Safety revolver of the third type. The hinged barrel locked solidly into the frame and the cylinder displayed minimal side play and no end-shake. The bore and chambers were perfect. The gun had been fired very little, if at all. It had the good grace to bc chambered for the still-available .38 Smith and Wesson Cartridge--a pocket pistol standard since the late 1870s. COPYRIGHT 2004 Publishers' Development Corporation
