Description:
  This gun has no Italian proof marks and is not marked blackpowder only.  The  only marks are  "NAVY ARMS CO" on the left side of the frame and on the barrel top flat, on the right side of the barrel "MADE IN ITALY" and the letters "GU" in script.  The cylinder is marked 50 and the Serial No. is 1582.  These guns began production in 1958 to be  ready for the Centennial of the Civil War. They were produced by Gregorelli and Uberti.  They are the earliest  Navy Arms made.  In the early days of the Navy Arms / Uberti connection, Gregorelli actually produced the metal parts for the revolvers and Uberti assembled them.

This is a copy of  a "Civilian Model".  None of the attachments for the shoulder stock are on this revolver.  There are no safety pins on the breech of the cylinder and the hammer face does not have the notch for the pins.  The hammer does sport a non-traditional square notch for a rear sight, very well done and visible to my old eyes.  The .36 caliber bore appears unfired.  The cylinder is not engraved but smooth.  Very  early production.  With  finishes of about 98%.  These are very scarce and near impossible to find. 57 years old.       These revolvers are extremely collectible.  This is one of the first Uberti made replicas that Val Forgett had imported.  Great find and it's worth preserving this very collectible piece.
