VIOLIN CASED SxS REMINGTON Model 1889 DOUBLE BARREL Pistol Grip Firearm C&R With 1939 DATED LETTER with HISTORY of the GUN
Description: VIOLIN CASED SxS REMINGTON Model 1889 DOUBLE BARREL Pistol Grip Firearm C&R With 1939 DATED LETTER with HISTORY of the GUN Here we present a C&R Remington Model 1889 Hammer Pistol Grip Firearm, originally a full length shotgun, manufactured in Ilion, New York. According to “Remington Double Shotguns” page 117 by Charles G. Semmer, the gun was manufactured in 1899. Included is a violin case with a note dated August 12, 1939, from Charles Burns of Bluffington, Ohio, indicating he purchased this gun and its case from Thelma, mother of Finny Logan, who was reportedly born in a whorehouse in Covington, Kentucky, circa 1900 and was shot circa 1929 trying to rob a country store. Originally, this shotgun would have been one of the nicest late 19th century firearms assembled by the Ilion, New York factory was the New Model 1889 side-by-side shotgun, with its twin, curved “C” shaped hammers. This was the last of Remington’s exposed-hammer doubles, a series that started with the Model 1873 Whitmore “Hammer Lifter” that utilized a European-style, tang-mounted lever to open the breech and concluded with the Model 1889. Though this shotgun isn’t the rarest, it remains a classic example of late-Victorian American sporting shotguns. In 1888, E. Remington & Sons went bankrupt, and, after being purchased by firearm entrepreneur Marcus Hartley and partners, the Model 1889 was one of the first guns to bear the newly reorganized Remington Arms Co. stamp. A total of 134,200 of these popular shotguns were produced between 1888 and 1910. The overall condition is fair to good. The barrels have been dramatically shortened and the stock turned into a pistol grip only. Patina throughout with some brown finish at the muzzle where it was cut. The right action will not hold cock at present but the left action is excellent. The bores are smooth and shiny bright. The stock is solid. Numbers match. the violin case is in fair condition with a split in the top of the lid and a bit of separation around the edges. Own the original! This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Barrels: 18-1/8 inches. Caliber: 10 Gauge Chambers: 3 inches Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING. Will need to be sent to your local FFL or C&R licensee. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1800 #244280 SOLD Antique: Yes |
