Description:
CIVIL WAR U.S. Contract REMINGTON New Model ARMY
Made and Shipped Circa 1864
Here we present an antique Remington New Model Army Revolver, likely issued to a Union soldier circa 1864, 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. During October 1864, E. Remington & Sons shipped 4000 New Model Army revolvers to the U.S. Government against their contract of November 21, 1863. The serial number of this revolver falls in the range of this production lot. The Remington 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 good. The iron parts have a gray patina. The markings are clear. The numbers match. The walnut grips are replacements in good shape. The bore is bright with strong rifling. The action is excellent, strong and crisp.
