- Freedom Arms factory cast metal belt-buckle holster with integrated retention hardware; FA logo on face and address casting on back
This micro-size single-action-only revolver is built from stainless steel throughout, including its 1.13-inch fixed barrel, frame, and fluted five-shot cylinder. The frame is marked "CASULL'S IMPROVEMENT" and "FREEDOM, WYO. U.S.A.," aligning it with the noted early series connected to Dick Casull.
The design uses a spur trigger without a trigger guard and an exposed, serrated hammer. The cylinder is removable and retained by a forward base pin and latch, a compact setup appropriate to the revolver's scaled form and intended carry concept.
Sighting is straightforward and rugged, with a fixed integral ramped front blade and a topstrap groove rear. Black synthetic birdshead grips provide a secure hold while maintaining the revolver's very compact dimensions.
The included factory belt-buckle holster is a cast metal unit with FA monogram and Freedom Arms banner details, plus the cast address and hallmark on the back. This holster corresponds to the belt-buckle carry concept described in Casull's patent, offering a period-correct pairing for the revolver.
