Forehand Arms Sn. 1989:
I've seen this one advertised for awhile. Something curious about it that I've not seen before, there appears to be a locking mechanism on the bottom of the frame. Apparently when engaged it would lock the barrel lug to the frame, prohibiting the action from opening. A selective secondary lock I suppose. Innovative design that never caught on, but purely speculation on my part. Interesting none the less. Thoughts?
Forehand Arms Company operated from 1890-1902. Though it's a rare high condition upper grade item, it hasn't yet found a buyer at $3K.
