Could be Uberti, ASP, or ASM.  Pictures of the markings on it would help.

What date code?
ASP got into business only around 1968.

PHOTOS!!  Please!

some tidbits to tempt you: Replica Arms Co. was formed in the l50's or 60's at El Paso Texas,
importing their pistols from Italy.

from Dr Jim Davis:

Replica Arms started out in El Paso, Texas with the 1847 Walker.
It was later moved to Marietta, Ohio. The early pistols were imported from Uberti.

In 1973 Navy Arms bought out Replica Arms of Marietta, Ohio. Those were marked
"Ridgefield, NJ", (the location of Navy Arms), but had the old Replica Arms Logo.

The name “Replica Arms” was eventually dropped and all guns were marked “Navy Arms”.
They were manufactured by Armi San Marcos, Uberti, and Pietta at different periods.
-------------------------------------------
from Strawhat on the Open Range:

Replica Arms of Marietta Ohio was for a while an impoter of Uberti revolvers.  Sometime, in the mid 70's or so, they were bought out by Navy Arms and ceased to operate.

I know for sure they imported (and marked with the RA stamp) copies of the 2nd Dragoon, 1851 Navy, 1861 Navy and 1860 Army.  They also had some interesting variations, my 1861s are fully fluted and cut for shoulder stocks, one with the round trigger guard and one with the squared triggerguard.

While they may have imported other revolvers and long arms, these are the only models of which I have knowledge.

Dear Prof. Marvel and the campfire: in the early 1960s Armi san Marco was the only regular maker of Colt Walker and the Dragoons.
Replica Arms was (one of the?) US importer and dealer out of El Paso, TX.
FAUL in Belgium, the Centaure maker, made a few prototypes of these horse pistols but never marketed them.
Uberti added the horse pistols to their assortment of C&B revolvers only many years later.
