Picked this up a few months back. Missing the bolt for the grip and the spring for the hammer. One small pitted portion on the outside but not structural. $75 shipped

It is a classic arms new Orleans ace.
That’s what I had figured but I seem to remember them stamping their name into theirs and this is bare
I picked up an early kit version at auction, new in the box, no name.
Bump
Price Dropped
Did we determine that is indeed a New Orleans Ace? I'm sorta interested but would like to know that I can find the missing spring.
It appears that the spring is a coil type, possibly available at a hardware store?
I suppose the ramrod and related parts could be fabricated, but would it be worth the effort?

It definitely is a New Orleans "Ace" pistol. It is not, however, a screw barrel loading pistol. The "Ace" loads from the muzzle like any conventional ML. That's the reason for the bbl mounted ramrod. Mine is a "hoot to shoot" & easy to maintain.
Decided to hang onto it and fix it up myself but if I do decide to sell it in the future you’ll be first to know
