Gleaned from the web: Probably made in 1864 or 1865; probably shipped to J W Storr, NYC (S&W's sole agent until 1868). Does anyone have a more accurate history? Thanks, Ray Attachments 001.jpg 79.3 KB · Views: 44

Yes, J.W.Storr's was the likely distributor, however Roy can give you a possible Civil War era ship date if you get a Factory Historical letter for the gun. Ed.
