Superbly ornamented stock side plate covering hidden storage compartment. Intricate brass work and hand checkered wrist make for an impressive appearance. An old and sturdy solid brass strip repair to wrist. Handsome wide solid brass trigger guard. The 29" 75 caliber barrel is octagonal and of rare "swamped" design, that is, tapered by original gunsmith to reduce weight. It is rifled, and boasts seven lands and seven grooves.
