It would be a Uberti, imported by Iver Johnson circa 77-78.

thanks major,  picked it up at a gun show this weekend. not a steal but a good price. it has uberti on the barrel and iver Johnson on the left side of the frame. I know its just another Italian replica but something I read online( ) claims they get  premium price over the others. I bought it for a future conversion project, before I make some un reversiable alterations to I wanted to make sure it aint something special

Iver Johnson imported them about two years or so... by then, Lou Imperato had acquired the old factory where he
began an arrangement producing 2nd gen BP series Colts.
You probably know of the Colt , Uberti , Val Forgett , Lou Imperato/Iver Johnson arrangement.
You'd also find Iver Johnson marked Griswold & Gunnison & 1860 Army's at the time.

Imperado when on to found Henry Repeating Arms, he passed on about 6-7 years ago.

Iver Johnson imported Remington's Mint , un-turned in the original box may bring a bit of premium,
because of their rather short run.
Unlike the BP series Colts made here, the Iver Johnson guns were imported and will have proof marks etc.
