I just bought one today. I have no idea what it is. I have done my googling but to no avail
It says:
A Faghur
R&F
on the side of the receiver, forward of the cylinder. It also has CSA in scroll on top of that.
I have two gun books and I cannot find this Faghur anywhere. Has anyone heard of this pistol? Do anyone know here I can buy parts for it?
thanks, John

All I am interested in is when it was made. If I am clogging up this forum with non-interesting topics please let me know.
I have had more good advice from some many good people on here I was checking my topic to see if anyone could tell me when I needed to know.
If I am locked out again thanks to all of you guys for helping me.
Cyl has the letters E L G stamped in a circle.It has a folding trigger.

Your pinfire could date anywhere from 1870s to WW-1, but most likely the former, especially with the British proofmarks: Pinfires were never very popular outside Continental Europe, and were mostly replaced by rimfire and centerfire examples by 1880. And the "littlegun" website seems to imply that the Fagnus gunmakers were only active until 1870s.
