There is also a "B" on the brass trigger guard.  The butt cap , back strap , and barrel strap are also brass.  The action is strong and the hammer holds at full and half cock. The barrel is 8 & 1/2" long  and the caliber is .58. . The wood has no splits, cracks, gouges or wood missing. A nice example of a military arm that may well have seen action in the American Civil War and the war with Mexico. There is no cartouche and no sign that there ever was one.
