I'm pretty sure it's a model 1889, external hammers, serial number 74405.


Any info would be appreciated, thanks.
Unless a gun is proofed for modern high pressure smokeless loads I would stay away from them- Damascus steel or drawn steel , it doesn't matter .
There dare low pressure smokeless loads available for Damascus guns but get it checked through first if you do not know what to look for.
