The 1860 Army was adopted as US government ordnance because of its lighter weight, improved balance, and superior ballistics. This 6 shot, .44 caliber round, 8" long barrel percussion revolver became very popular with mounted troops and went on to be the issued sidearm for the US Army for many years. 

This revolver features a steel backstrap and brass trigger guard.
