Rare CIVIL WAR Era REMINGTON-BEALS First Model .31 Cal. Percussion REVOLVER Manufactured at the Remington Armory in Ilion

Description:
Rare CIVIL WAR Era REMINGTON-BEALS First Model .31 Cal. Percussion REVOLVER

Manufactured at the Remington Armory in Ilion

Here we present a rare Remington-Beals percussion revolver, manufactured circa 1856-1858 at the Remington Armory in Ilion, New York, with a total production run of around 3,000 revolvers. Fordyce Beals (1807-1870) was a firearms engineer who worked both for the Whitneyville Armory and then the Remington Armory in the mid-1850s. During his time at Remington, he developed what would become the Remington-Beals 1st Model, a 5-shot pocket revolver which appeared in mid-1856.

Though this design allowed Remington to break into the civilian gun market, it was more prominent as a revolver that saw service with both sides of the American Civil War. The gun’s design is typical of the period. The grip is integral with gutta percha grips for comfort, and the solid frame added robustness to the design. Its compact dimensions were respectable, especially with discerning buyers seeking concealment for their firearms.

The overall condition is good. The action functions, but the cylinder does not lock up. Good bore for its age. Solid grip with low wear. This example has been refinished in blue. The front sight has some wiggle.

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.

Barrel is 3 inches.

Caliber: .31 Percussion

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.
