Remington Model 1858 Army, 44-percussion revolver, period after-market converted to 44 CF
Description:
#4243 Remington Model 1858 Army, 44-percussion revolver, period after-market converted to 44 CF during the early 1870s, and having the secondary conversion sub number under the barrel. Standard inexpensive method of converting using a new cylinder and recoil shield. Excellent bore and very good action although it seems to be firing off the half-cock notch and so may need the hammer notches rebuilt ..however it does work as it is. Most likely this is chambered for the 44COLT or 44REM cartridge, but could also be 44SWR. In any case, usually the 44S&W Mag or 44S&W Special cases can be trimmed to size and just loaded with a suitable and recommended dose of BLACK powder (or its substitute). The exterior has about a 70% coverage of a 25% density blue mixing with plum blue-brown. Some good flashes of denser blue on the frame. As with most Model 1858s, it has a typically weak barrel address and made yet weaker when refinished during the conversion process. Grips are slightly over-sized, and while appearing pretty old, I do think these are probably some after-market replacements. About Fine as described. $1550
