Description:
ANCHOR MARKED CIVIL WAR Antique REMINGTON M1861 NAVY Revolver USN

One of Roughly 7,000 “OLD MODEL NAVY” Made in 1864

Here we present an antique Anchor Marked Remington Model 1861 Navy Percussion Revolver made in 1864 at the Remington Armory of Ilion and Utica, New York, likely used throughout the American Civil War. Remington produced their Model 1861 Navy based on their successful and well received Model 1861 Army revolvers. The Army revolvers blazed the trail for the revolver pattern of all future Remington design and the Navy version was no different.

The key to the Remington design over the competing Colt offerings was the closed frame design which made for a more robust sidearm on the battlefield. This made Remington revolvers a very popular commodity for both sides of the American Civil War.

Production of the Navy was limited, however, to an estimated 7,000 examples. Production began and ended in 1862 and almost all of these revolvers were produced solely to fulfill U.S. government contracts. In comparison, the Remington Model 1861 Army was produced to the tune of roughly 147,000 examples. Those purchased by the US Navy during the war were not marked but once the war was over they were taken in and marked with the anchor on top of the barrel.

The overall condition is very good. Refinished. The action is excellent. The bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. The grips are solid. Numbers match. Nice German silver cone front sight.

Barrel is 7-3/8 inches.
