Help with 1860 Colt revolver

Can someone help me come up with the maker of my 1860 Colt? Other than for black powder only on one side of the barrel. Model 5139 44 cal is on the side of the barrel.It is cut for a shoulder stock. There is a small box with AI in it on one side of the frame.

Sounds like a Euroarms, sold by Armsport.

It was made in 1982. This might help identifying it.
