Identification needed
Have a 1851 style brass frame 44 cal revolver that I just picked up. I don't know who the mfg is. I know it was made in 1987 by the date code (AS) but unsure who made it. The mark in question looks like a capital A with a small v directly underneath it. It appears with all the other proofmarks and also appears under the barrel. Anyone know who's mark it is?
perhaps I can help
My Walker has that exact same mark, in the same place- but the barrel is stamped Connecticut Valley Arms on top (CVA), and bottom of barrel is stamped "made by ASM in Italy"- it is date coded AU
ASM= Armi San Marco, no longer in business
I'd guess that your gun was made by ASM.
