  According to Flayderman, "Flayderman's Guide to Antique American Firearms", your revolver is a late production, "New Army and Navy Revolver".
  
  These revolvers were made between 1892 & 1907 in large quantities, ( almost 300,000 ), in a number of calibers besides .41.
  
  Since the full serial number should be on the butt, "bottom of handgrip", something is amiss with yours.
