Description:
Remington Rolling Block Modelo Argentino 1879 E.N. in .43 Spanish Caliber. This Remington Rolling Block Rifle was made for the South American country of Argentina. The Remington name and address on the tang of the receiver has become faint but is discernible. The model and date information are listed on the barrel MODELO ARGENTINO. 1879 E.N. The E.N. abbreviation is for the Ejercito Nacional, or National Army in Argentina. Around the late 1800s Argentina was a developing world power and had one of the largest economies in the world. Like any growing power, it needed arms, and as there were not yet local producers up to the task, they contracted out for their weaponry. They would later replace the rolling blocks with the more modern Argentine Contract Mauser rifles towards the end of the 1800s. The rifle is complete with its ramrod and ladder-back sight, and really is in great collectible condition. The action works beautifully, and the bore is bright. It was common to refinish these rifles after they left military service and imported to the states. None
