Hey we were going through my dads stuff when we found an old revolver it is marked BAYARD on the side and is a .32 caliber revolver and is a model 1926. Also is stamped with "Anciens Etablissements PIEPER" on the barrel. I was just wanting to see if anyone could tell me the history of the gun and if possible the value of it. I have pictures of the gun and can post some if needed. Any help would be appreciated.

Here is a history of Henry Pieper, Liege, Belgium:

Scroll down about half way and a Bayard revolver is shown.

It would be best if you posted quality photos. That said, Belgian .32 revolvers aren't normally high dollar items. Likely even if in excellent condition, there would be little collector demand=value in it.

And if it's the one shown on link I posted, it's chambered for the 8mm Lebel revolver cartridge, which is not same as .32 ammo loaded in USA, and very expensive when found.
