I have one like it from 1881. I shoot it all the time with any off the shelf ammo 1oz at 1200 fps or below. Nothing like an under lifter. You will love it.

Pretty nice lifter, well worth a professional stock repair if the bores are good. Wow, 32" Twist and straight grip. Is it a #3 frame? Better yet.

Steve

The barrels are from an 1878 gun. They are N0. 3 frame barrels and look like they match the frame so it is likely a 3 frame too. I don't have my book with me but if someone can look the barrel serial number up, you can determine if they are cut or uncut. The barrels are twist or plain twist, not stub twist.

The barrels are right, and serial numbered to the gun. See the left side of the barrel lug. That number you're reading on the barrel flat is the order number.

My bad. I didn't see the number on the lug. The fore end attachment should have been a tip off.
