Antique REMINGTON New Model POLICE .38 RF CONVERSION Revolver w/IVORY GRIPS Factory Converted to .38 Rimfire Cartridge
Description: Antique REMINGTON New Model POLICE .38 RF CONVERSION Revolver w/IVORY GRIPS Factory Converted to .38 Rimfire Cartridge Here Ancestry Guns presents an antique Remington New Model Police Cartridge Conversion Revolver with antique Ivory Grips, made circa 1865 to 1873 in Ilion, New York. It would have started out life as a .36 caliber percussion revolver prior to conversion. This sidearm, scaled down from the Remington Navy and Belt models, was one of some 18,000 factory alterations from percussion to metallic rimfire cartridge. Designed to compete with the Colt Model 1862 Police sidearm and the Pocket Navy revolvers, this .38 caliber rimfire, five-shot two-piece cylinder is fitted with a special plate on the front shoulder. This would have been a nice, unobtrusively sized revolver to carry in a holster. With 5 rounds of .38 rimfire, one could get themselves out of most scrapes. This revolver would have been modified to accept metallic cartridges near the expiration of the Smith & Wesson owned Rollin White Patent, which prevented other companies from using the bored through cylinder until 1869. As mentioned, these revolvers were scaled down versions of the Remington Belt and Navy Models. Most of the New Model Police Revolvers were either manufactured to chamber metallic cartridges or factory altered for cartridges, as is this example. The overall condition is very fine. Original nickel finish. The action is excellent. Bright bore with sharp rifling. Barrel markings are worn. Both grips are in fine shape with light wear. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 4-1/2 inches. Caliber: .38 Rimfire Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. $2450 #259613 Antique: Yes Price: $2,450.00 Buy Now Pay with
