Welcome to the Forum. As Alan states, you have a 38 Double Action, 3rd Model that would have shipped around 1889-1890. It is in pretty average condition, but may be fine to shoot standard 38 S&W ammo if function and mechanical condition warrants.
The 38 DAs are tough to ID. The 3rd Model was supposed to run to 322,XXX but there was a large overlap of models versus serial numbers. Yours, however, is most likely a 3rd Model.
