Can’t help with any details right now other than that 1876 was from the year 1882. Have sent s/n to Cody and will get back with you when I hear from them.

This is the time to join the Cody museum. You can check a gun before you buy it to see if its right. One bad gun deal and you paid for many years of the membership.
