Hi Leroy,

How is the marking on the grip stamped? Is it 3.ch. or 3.Ch. Without seeing photos of the exact marking, it could be 3rd Chevaulegers (Light Cavalry) Regiment. If there aren't any other numbers or letters, it is most likely a "Stab" or Staff pistol. Meaning that it was more or less held in reserve for issue as needed and never assigned to a Squadron.

Welcome to the forum..
