I recently purchased and Iver Johnson s/n 48534 Pat Aug 25.96 Hammerless revolver. I'm trying to research as much as possible before I take it to the range, and have it checked out by a gun smith. if anyone could help on the manufactured date I'd appreciate it.

But there is a mark or etch, across the back of the handle,,, almost like a notch on a bed post

I'm really curious about that. I have no history on the gun, purchased it from a friend.

If anybody could clue me in on the habits of the people back in the day when it was purchased I'd appreciate it.

Thanks
Mike
