Only approx. 25,000-30,000 of these revolvers were made in period 1875-1889 in direct competition with the Colt Single Action Army Revolver.

Cylinder has a few small spots of flaking with fine pitting on front face. Grips are sound with traces of orig varnish, being mostly a hand worn patina. Grip screw is a modern replacement.
