c1870s Antique REMINGTON New Model ARMY .46 Rimfire CARTRIDGE CONVERSION
Early Metallic Cartridge 5-Shooter!
Description: c1870s Antique REMINGTON New Model ARMY .46 Rimfire CARTRIDGE CONVERSION Early Metallic Cartridge 5-Shooter! Here we present an antique Remington New Model Army Cartridge Conversion Revolver in .46 Rimfire. This revolver was likely converted sometime after the Civil War ended with the expiration of the Rollin-White Patent in 1869. This one features a cylinder cut and converted to accept rimfire cartridges, a rimfire hammer (this one with a lower spur with nice knurling), a loading gate cut into the recoil shield on the right side, and a guide for a manual rod ejector. This would have been a very early cartridge revolver. The Remington New Model Army represents the second greatest number of issued handguns found on Civil War battlefields, second only to the Colt 1860 Army. The New Model Army was the primary revolver issued to Union cavalry after the fire at the Colt's factory in 1863. The Union government acquired a total of some 122,000 of these New Model revolvers for military use, with nearly 110,000 New Models purchased by the U.S. government during the Civil War, at a cost of around $11 each. The State of New Jersey also purchased several thousand for Civil War issue. The New Model 1863 Army represents Remington’s highest production martial pistol. It featured a strong, solid-frame design with the groove in the top for a rear sight, as opposed to Colt’s open-top design. Though Colt got the lion’s share of the government contracts, many consider the Remington New Model Army the superior firearm. William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody used an ivory-handled New Model Army .44, serial number 73,293, from 1863 until 1906, when he gave it to his ranch foreman with a handwritten note which said that, "It never failed me”. The overall condition is good. Dark patina throughout. The action is excellent and the cylinder has good lockup. The bore is dim and scaley with good rifling yet visible. The grips are solid. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 8 inches. Caliber: .46 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. ancestryguns $1995 #217388 SOLD Antique: Yes |
