Description:
CIVIL WAR U.S. Contract REMINGTON New Model ARMY
Made and Shipped Circa 1863-64
Here we present an antique Remington New Model Army Revolver, likely issued to a Union soldier circa 1863-64, during the American Civil War. The Remington New Model Army represents the second-most number of issued handguns found on Civil War battlefields, second only to the Colt 1860 Army. The Union government acquired a total of some 122,000 of these New Model revolvers for military use, with nearly 110,000 New Models purchased by the U.S. government during the Civil War, at a cost of around $11 each. The State of New Jersey also purchased several thousand for Civil War issue. The New Model 1863 Army represents Remington’s highest production martial pistol. It featured a strong, solid-frame design with the groove in the top for a rear sight, as opposed to Colt’s open-top design. Though Colt got the lion’s share of the government contracts, many consider the Remington New Model Army the superior firearm.
The overall condition is very good. The iron has been re-blued at some point. The markings are clear. The walnut grips show wear and remain in good condition with a visible inspector’s cartouche. The numbers match. The bore is bright and sharp. The action is excellent.
