The bas-relief eagle is on the correct side of the grip for a righthand hold.

1851's are in a class all their own.

…The frame looks like bronze to me…

Fingers may know better but I do not believe any of the replica makers used bronze for a frame material. Most of the “fancy” revolvers had plated brass frames.

It would be easy to find out if that frame is ferrous/ferric.  Maybe Shootemup will let us know.

In post number 11 he said it was steel.

Maker is Armi San Marco
Date code is AU 1989
It is a steel frame just hard to see in my picture
The frame, barrel and hammer were all left in the white

Nice ASM.  They made some good stuff prior to 2000.  I thought it was an ITW the yellowish frame is probably caused by the camera.
