1851 Navy Brass Frame .36

[Cowboy]

Was given this .36, 1851 brass frame Navy. It’s in pristine condition. Can’t find any signs of it ever being fired.

I don’t know the manufacturer?? Only markings are on the bottom flat of the barrel and stamping on bottom portion of the frame. It’s Italian made with the date code signifying it was built in 1987.

Anyway, I’m not really into cap&ball revolvers. Was given this pistol along with a, .50 CVA Plainsman caplock rifle which is also in pristine condition.

Friends father Inlaw passed away a couple of years ago and had these two BP gun’s in his collection. My buddy had no use for them and offered to give the both to me? I offered to pay him something but he refused. Don’t really know what I’m gonna do with them yet myself?

I guess my question would be? Who’s the manufacturer of this pistol??

Respectfully, Cowboy

Armi San Marco, if you look at the little triangle below the serial number in front of the trigger guard you will see it is really an A, an S and an M intertwined. Nice looking piece.

I appreciate your reply hawkeye. I definitely should have thought about asking you directly. I’ve been around long enough to know that when it comes to CB revolvers and Civil War Long Arms, you’d be the one I’d most like to hear from!

Thank you my friend.

Respectfully, Cowboy
