In 1892, Second Double Action Model just like the 1889 but had cylinder lock notches and was adopted by the United States Army chambered for .38 Long Colt cartridges and had two piece Wood grips. Initial experience with the gun caused officials to request some improvements. This would be an ongoing condition, resulting in Models 1892, 1894, 1896, 1901, and 1903 for the Army, as well as a Model 1895 for the Navy and a Model 1905 Marine Corps variant. Colt Manufactured and chambered in 38 Long & short Colt, 41 Long & short Colt, 32-20 also known as 32 WCF and the Very Rare 38 Special marked on the barrel and Smith & Wesson got on colt for using their 38 special designation on their barrel so colt recall what guns they could and marked them 38 colt DA and advertise that they would shoot the new 38 special round prior to this day 1892 models could not shoot the 38 special round mostly because the forcing colt was too small.
