Whoever cleaned this one up never got higher than 40 grit! [All I can see is what looks like a very faint "38".] UPDATE- there are no caliber markings on bbl. There are patent dates on top of barrel
"...Wesson..Springfield.....July ? 84" Those too are very faint markings. This one was rode hard and put up wet, many times. It does letter as 5" target and shipped to Beakhart 1-24-1900. I'll try for photos tomorrow.
