Nice purchase, you're a lucky guy.

That is a real beauty and appears unfired with zero turn line, that I could see in the pic.
How pristine is the faceplate ?

Don’t know why my pics load upside down, they’re right side up on my phone camera roll.
It’s definitely unfired. This is one of my holy grail Dans for sure.

looks nice but maybe fired a few times? The recoil shield/ plate (back of the revolver where the firing pin protrudes) is what Stinger was referencing.

Thanks Ron, I couldn't recall the correct terminology, which I strive to do for the sake of new members.

It was fired by the manufacturer, correct?

Supposedly 3 chambers fired and not cleaned. If you haven't cleaned it and there is carbon in alternating chambers but none in the other 3 in is never fired since the factory. If so, dont clean it. It is proof of ANIB.

So I looked in each chamber of the cylinder and I see a slight ring in all 6 of them. I don’t have any .414 ammo (nor any .41 ammo), but if I had to guess, those rings look like they’d be right at the location of the end of the cartridge/case. All 6 chambers show a little powder residue, very little, but some. I used my Borecam to inspect all 6 chambers and they’re all alike. The barrel looks incredibly clean, very little residue. Does the 6 rings in the cylinder chambers indicate having been fired? To be honest, I’d prefer this thing to have been shot because then I’ll feel better about shooting it myself. But, if it truly is unfired, I’m not gonna shoot it. I really wanna shoot it tho! 
Maybe I’m just

I would guess it has been shot but very little. I have an unfired 414 and bought some 41 ammo. Then I had to get a 41 revolver because I had 41 ammo. 😲🙄

and a nice score! Definitely shoot it. You can always clean it. You'll love the .414 round, they are great.
Congrats!

Sounds like sage advice. The brass was delivered today. Just gotta get bullets and a set of dies. Probably go with titegroup powder. I’ll have to look for a recipe/load data.

Not familiar with 1680, I’ll have to look it up. Thanks, I always appreciate the input!!

Put a grip on that gun!! That cheap rubber Hogue on that gun is sacrilege!! 
An original large-frame walnut or zebra would look nice, or a Hogue Stripe Cap in Pau Ferro wood (checkered w/ one or two finger grooves) would look really nice. Like this!
