Besides the sight, it is also identifiable as an ASM Dragoon by the scroll work in between the two banners on the cylinder. Only ASM did that as far as I know!
While living in Connecticut I was once allowed to bring a BP revolver to an indoor range in the last shooting round of the evening since I'd called up in advance and asked if I could do it. Of course, no one there had a BP revolver, everyone was shooting modern guns. After I lit off my first bullet, causing a reverberating BP "BOOM!!" and sending a shower of BP embers and a cloud of brimstone smoke downrange, I heard someone off to my right exclaim, "what the h3ll was that????"
I haven't been there in a while but Target World in Sharonville north of Cincinnati, Ohio used to always allow me to shoot BP. I almost have the crickets out of my ears (tinnitus) now after a number of years away from the ranges so I may try again in the near future.
