Greetings All. This gun has no maker's mark, only proof and date marks, but I believe it to be an Armi San Marco. Proofed 1976 (AB). I have not personally fired this gun but it has been fired. However, there are no signs of wear or abuse, just small marks from normal use and handling, with a clean, shiny bore, and good action, timing and trigger pull. $365 shipped to CONUS only, please. I prefer payment via postal money order.

I also have two Uberti 1849 Pocket Revolvers for sale on this forum. I will discount the price(s) to anyone who is interested in taking two of them or all three.

If I may ask, what’s the difference between the 1st and 2nd? I have the 2nd model and it looks like the same. I also have the 3rd model.
 
Sure, you may ask - I'll even try to answer! The first model has round/oval cylinder stops similar to the Walker. The loading lever latch is an improvement over the Walker but I believe that it is the same on all three Dragoon models (four if you count the Whitneyville/Hartford transition model as a Dragoon). The first model also has a "V" style main spring, although I understand that some of the early second models do as well, before Colt changed the main spring to a flat leaf spring.

I hope that helps. Let me know if you want to add a First Model to go with your Second Model. :)

So this one has the v spring. I have a cylinder with oval stops. Fits both my Uberti 3rd and ASM 2nd. And yeah I’d love to have it but I just bought a shotgun and I’m brokie till next month😜
