I can only base my observations on my repros, patents, questions I ask, and answers from knowledgeable people like Rifle/Wayne. I do own two original BP revolvers, the Savage & North and the Whitney. The Savage & North is a different species altogether. The Whitney is pretty straightforward - not much difference from that and say a Spiller & Burr repro or a Remington repro. I have handled and partially stripped down a few originals - an 1851 .36, an 1849 .31 and an 1860 .44. I really didn't see much variation between them and repros.
