#4250 Remington Model 1858 Army, 44-caliber revolver, 71XXX serial range, period after-market converted to 45COLT during the early 1870s, and having the secondary conversion sub number under the barrel. Standard inexpensive method of converting using a spliced cylinder and recoil shield. Excellent bore (9 on a scale of 10) and very smooth tight action. The cylinder was chambered for the 45COLT cartridge ....and being as the barrel is the original 44caliber, only a softer solid lead bullet should be used along with a suitable and recommended dose of BLACK powder (or its substitute). The exterior has about a 80% coverage of a 45% density matte blue mixing with plum blue-brown. Some faint flashes of denser blue on the frame. Decent barrel address and very good-to-Fine grips. About Fine as described. $1765
