Hi,
Does anyone have any further info on this saber with ACMP scrolled on it? What the ACMP stands for?

Hello James, and welcome to our forum!!!
It is great to see this old thread back, and over the course of several years some fantastic information was compiled and exchanged .

I must confess I am unclear on which sabre you are referring to, and hopefully myself or some of the others might be able to retrace .

Thank you again for bringing this thread back

All best regards
Jim

Hi Jim,

James is refering to one of Custer's sabers that was in the posession Of Colonel Brice Custer refered to in my quote from Little Bighorn Associates Research Review Volume VIII Fall Number 3, in post number 27. It sounds like the letters are etched and not stamped.

Most likely this saber was a gift from one of GAC's classmate and friend Alexander C.M. Pennington. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexan...Pennington,_Jr.
