Default Is this a model 1 1/2?
Hello, I just picked this up and I am curious if indeed it is a model 1 1/2? Has dates in a "V" on top. Also can anyone date it? Serial number is 849xx. Thanks

Looks like a 32 CF. 1 1/2 would be a tip up, not a top break.

The original 1-1/2 in .32 rimfire was a tip-up. The 2nd version called the Model 1 1/2 Single Action Centerfire is a top break like duck32man's gun. The SCSW acknowledges there is considerable confusion about this identification issue. The OP's gun was shipped around 1890. Someone with better data will have to be more specific.
