There were three companies under the parent company of Orbea Hermanos y cia of Eibar Spain and all of them were copies of the Smith & Wesson Frontier double action (except for them being in.455 cal.) The revolvers carry the British Crown over V proofs on the barrel lug and the frame and every flute of the cylinder. The revolver is in very good condition and appears to function as designed.
