Personal Check with hold Description: Exceptional and "Very Fine" Civil War Era Martially Marked Remington New Model Army Percussion Revolver. This is an exceptional example of one of the most widely used handguns of the Civil War. The Remington New Model Army was the primary revolver issued to Union cavalry after the fire at the Colt factory in 1863. The New Model Army was manufactured from 1863 to 1875 with a total production of approximately 122,000 and represented the last of Remington's .44 caliber percussion revolvers. The revolver has an 8 inch barrel, blued finish, casehardened hammer, fire blued trigger and brass trigger guard. The top barrel flat is marked: "PATENTED SEPT. 14. 1858/E. REMINGTON & SONS. ILION NEW YORK. U.S.A./NEW-MODEL". Small single letter inspection marks are stamped on most components. The serial number "121216" is located on the bottom barrel flat and left side of the frame under the grip. Partial hand-numbered "1216" on the underside of the grips. Fitted with smooth oiled walnut grips with "GRC" circled script cartouche on the left grip and an Orville W. Ainsworth "OWA" cartouche on the right grip.Condition is Exceptionally fine. This revolver clearly saw very little use and has been well cared for, retaining 80% plus of the original high polish blue finish with some patches of brown patina throughout, some thinning on the front strap, and a drag line on the cylinder. The trigger guard has a lightly aged patina. The hammer retains nearly all of the dark case colors, and the trigger retains most of the fire blue finish. Grips are very fine with some light handling marks, chips out of the top front on each, and crisp cartouches. Mechanically excellent. Buyer pays $20.00 shipping to lower 48 states.
