Pohill,
How come the pics, first and second, show the wedge in the vertical plane on one pic, and horizontal in the other? Mine show it to be horizontal, as a Colt wedge normally is
Also, as per my pic, the barrel latch post on the barrel is wrong, your's is slanted/curved to the rear, my pics show it to be more like a Colt post, more or less vertyical. Also the hammer spur is more erect, more like a Colt.
That may be because it IS # 82, an unknown, it could also be that it is a fake. There are other discrepancies. As I said, the book says they were stamped "CS", for Confederate States , not CSA, for Confederate States of America, which was actually Confederate States Armoury.
Nah, if you want to sell it, reduce your price, don't think you have a real antique. Could be wrong, but....
Cheers,
George
