Indexes and thurns the 3 1/2" barrels correctly with the hammer hotting the nipple directly , sometimes it may over bank but the edge of the hammer would still hit the prrimer,. The barrel appears to have  ALLEN & WHEELOCK, WORCESTER clearly marked.Patches of sparce salt and pepper very fine pits from usuing caustic black powder on top of the hammer and along the barrel, , but shows up well.  And the American black walnut grips are complete and very good ,and fit well. . These were the first true American 1830's double action revolvers made in America and many saw action the Texas/Mexico war as well as the gold rush. When buying a gun always have it examined by a competent gunsmith  before  shooting. To buy a gun from me you must get a direct email for me, with details, and shipping cost.   We don’t have a web  site .I prefer money orders or a check.  Item ships when funds come in. I try to keep guns  affordable, which means I make less money than most dealers. You won’t get altitude sickness, or nose bleed, with my prices! I consistently have the best selection of  older guns If you attempt to buy,  you must still contact us for details . Best to email to buy. Sometimes a local person can stop buy and purchase before the gun is removed.  Sometimes not home to get calls. Some guns are required shipment to a gun dealer near you for a transfer to you when it arrives. Otherwise many older or black powder guns ship to your door. With the widest selection of older guns at great prices, We don’t have a store, and sell on the internet only.  I’m easy to get along with. Thank You
