Gary,

Not often do I disagree...Although in this particular instance I believe you're incorrect assuming it's a .44 DA Frontier!!

Reason being...Using the Attached Photo I've posted for reference...If you enlarge the OP's Photo & look closely I believe you'll see the difference in the Top Strap!! I also believe the angle at which the photo was taken has a lot to do with why you assumed it had the Long Top Strap...Being somewhat misleading!!

It also looks to have Shorter Cylinder Flutes associated with a Std. .44 DA!! Hopefully the OP will come back with the Cyl. Length to verify either way!!

I've been wrong before although in this particular instance I believe the Revolver to be a Std. .44 Dbl.-Action chambered for a .44 Russian Cartridge!!
