There is a visible number 5 on back of cylinder. WP inspector stamps at base of barrel. The front sight is period replacement. Comes with a sealed box of 10 Caliber .45 Revolver Ball Cartridges from Frankford Arsenal dated 1878. CONDITION: Good to very good. There is no original finish remaining and is now a smooth grey patina. Legends are all sharp. Cylinder indexes. Bore is strong with minor abrasions. Nice clean example.
