    Most likely with the brass frame, it's a Italian made replica. If it is, it will have Italian Proof Marks including a coded proof date. Either post quality photos of all markings, or give us a very detailed description.

    Does it look like a dragoon?

    Ships usually mean Navy and that usually means 1851. Just guessing.

    Navy caliber is .36. It would have to be an Army if it's a .44. Nonetheless, Colt never made a brass framed revolver. It definitely is a replica but we need all markings to identify it.

    Lots of brass frame 36 OR 44 cal Italian repro "navy" revolvers floating around out there. should be an Octagon to be a navy. Original Navy Colts were all 36 cal.

    As others have said, need markings and or pix to ID, but MOST all say "made in Italy" somewhere, usually the barrel.

    Have fun shooting it.
