Help identifying this hammerless 32

I was recently given this, and it resembles a sw safety hammerless, but lacks a safety and looks like someone messed with the potential original(now gone) hammer, and trigger guard

I had one like it and it was made by McAllister. does it have an owl on the handle. If it does then it is made by McAllister I believe.

H&R. Looks like late 1890s. Very likely in black powder .32 or .38 S&W.

I'm french, I'm drunk, but it's a Hopkins and Allen OR an Iver and Johnson.
And I say Hopkins and Allen

Be careful putting anything .odern through it. My wife's grandmother had a .38 version of this (with a hammer) and even though it was in excellent shape it self destructed pretty quickly. The cylinder stopped rotating after a few shots.
Fyi revolvers rarely have safeties. If the hammer is not cocked (or if it's a hammerless double action only) the trigger pull is very heavy and unlikely to happen by accident.
