The proof stamps indicate the revolver was sold in Germany.

The Germans seemed to take a hellish delight in stamping proof stamps on the sides of fine American revolvers right where they'd be most glaringly apparent.

The "pineapple" Shield stamp is, I think, the Munich Germany proof stamp, used since 1968.
The German Federal Eagle with "N" is the proof stamp for Ulm Germany used since 1952.
