Steel frames are better-more durable.

I didn't know they made steel frame models.

Brass frames are considered "Confederate", due to shortages of iron and steel they had to use substitute materials.

this is a COLT civil war commemorative single shot .22. made in 1961.

About the same size as the '62 Pocket Police?
Assuming it loads and empties via the capper notch?
Who made it?
How does it shoot?
Do I sound curious?

I don't know, I don't have a '62 pocket police to compare it to.
you have to take it apart and push the empty out with the rod on the end of the cylinder pin.
made by colt.
shoots to point of aim.
here is a half arsed video that I found on youtube that explains the functioning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyilap60e2c

Thanks for that, Free. Long drawn out affair even for a single shot but it's definitely unique. About the same size as the '62.

I swiped an image off the net. Compares the difference in size between the 1860 Army .44 and the copy of the .36, 5-shot 1862 Pocket Police.

here it is between an 1858 and an 1863 Remington. I had a lot of fun with it when I was a kid so alas it's well used.Attachment 43257
