Bernimolin & Cap breveté

Belgian Pinfire Pepperbox with detachable barrel, fireable with or without long barrel. The barrel is marked, B&C Breveté, the detachable barrel is 6 inches long.

Thanks to "ANTIQUEGUNS" for the pictures

 

I think that this is a center fire transition revolver, with folding trigger.

I did not see any stamps of the Liege proof house ?

The mark B & C could possibly correspond to BERNIMOLIN & CAP, 2 rue des Chapelains ,in Liege, which was registered with the Proof House from 1882 to 1885.

Unfortunately I do not have any other elements to be 100% affirmative .
