        The first one is a pin fire revolver, probably made in Belgium.
        The name "pin fire" cam from the Lefaucheaux cartridge that they fired. This kind of gun was very popular from the 1850s until the dawn of the 20th Century and, thus, were widely made in France, Belgium, Germany and Spain. A good close of any mark stamped can help us more to identify its origin.

        The second looks like a Colt New Line Single Action Pockt, cal. 38. The original Colts were made only for a limited time (1874 to 1880) with only 5,500 made. However, yours differs from the original Colts, as these had a grooved cynlinder, while yours has a plain one. Same as above, pictures of the marking (if any) would be helpful.
