Best Answer

There are three types H&A top break revolvers
1885-1899 usually marked with the 1886 patent dates (some may have more than two patent date markings but none would be later than 1899

1899-1907 Forehand models all manufactured using designs patented by either Forehand & Wadsworth or Forehand arms co.

1908-1917 Safety Police model, marked with that name and usually the patent date August 21, 1906.


Exact dates are almost impossible to ascertain- the factory was destroyed by fire about 1901, and the company closed for good in 1917. ALL H&A handguns were designed for Black Powder ammunition, and should not be fired with modern ammunition.
