I’ve been reading and learning here since the beginning.
I do not ever recall a thread depicting and exploring any UFC Union Firearms Company sidelocks.

Their catalogue shows a couple models, but I have never seen one.

Does anyone here have one?
Anyone got a picture?

JohnE? DaveN?

If we can pull a self opening Triumph out of the woodwork, there must be someone with a UFC side lock.

Anyone?

I do not own one but lost out on an auction for one on GunBroker. It had a Lefever ball instead of a hinge pin. I think Mike99 won that auction but that is just a memory or guess. It was a very low grade gun. One of Lefever's sons went up to Toledo after they closed and I expect he had a few rough casting to work with. That was the only one I have ever seen and it was over a decade ago.

The Union doubles I know of are sideplate guns with the lock parts all mounted in the frame --







As to where they are, they were essentially a POS when they were built and most have been reduced to scrap.
