The state of New York purchased about 15,000 rolling block rifles from Remington in the 1870's. These can be distinguished by the high hammer spur and the thumb lever for the breechblock that protrudes to the right instead of up. It also features a patented half cock hammer safety, which requires the hammer to be fully cocked again after loading a cartridge and closing the breechblock. It uses the standard Remington M1871 military round top rolling block action with a 36 inch round barrel in .50-70 Government caliber. It is very similar to the Springfield M1871 Licensed design.
