I was given the remaining firearms he had that survived the fire and were untouched. It is a great, fun shooter.Д®ven the varnish on the grip is in great shape and suffered no damage from the fire. The piece was checked, cared for and returned to my friend, all for free. They even fitted it with new springs because they were the only parts that suffered real damage, having gone soft. Navy Arms checked the revolver for soundness and safety. My friend sent the revolver back to Navy Arms telling them about the fire and what happened. The revolver was found buried in the ashes during the clean up of the house. You can see in the metal where the leather had been burned and the transfer went through to the blueing. Water from the firemen's hoses soaked the leather and saved the revolver. About 20% of the blueing had been burned off of the barrel and cylinder. The revolver was only one of a very few that survived a fire when the owner's house burned to the ground. The revolver was part of a larger collection he had. I received this revolver as a gift from an old friend about twenty-five years ago.

The serial number is marked only in one place, on the bottom of the frame, ahead of the forward end of the trigger guard. There are no pins on the back of the cylinder between the nipples and chambers. I was unable to remove the grip from the backstrap to check for any markings. 13 is again found at the very back end of the barrel, next to the the hole for the arbor to secure the barrel to the frame. 13 is found again on the underside of the frame and is covered by the trigger guard when it is in place. The only other marking is the number 13 which is found on the inside of the trigger guard, under the mainspring. On the top barrel flat at the breech end is the marking:-Navy Arms Co. Navy Arms Co is on the left side of the frame where Colts Patent would be. The only words on the side of the revolver are: Made in Italy, with A U directly below. They are not in a box like on the list you posted earlier. The A U is in cursive and is located on the right side of the barrel, just above and slightly ahead of the wedge. I found the information you posted regarding Proof Marks = years of production, I even saved it.Д«ut this revolver has only the markings I described.
