1883 Antique DANISH MODEL Remington Rolling Block Model 1867 MILITARY Rifle CENTER & RIMFIRE! Dated 1883 & Made in COPENHAGEN
Description: 1883 Antique DANISH MODEL Remington Rolling Block Model 1867 MILITARY Rifle CENTER & RIMFIRE! Dated 1883 & Made in COPENHAGEN Here we present an antique Remington Rolling Block Model 1867 Military Rifle, made in 1883 at the Kjobenhavns Toihuus Arsenal at Copenhagen for the Danish Army. Denmark was the first of a long list of countries that would adopt the Remington Rolling Block for their militaries, after Sam Remington’s exhibition trip to Europe in 1866. Norway and Sweden each followed suit. The appeal of the Rolling Block was its strong, simple action. Though repeating rifles were becoming more and more refined and prevalent in civilian circles, militaries all around the world were still married to the idea of large bore, single shot rifles. Denmark’s initial chambering was for a rimfire cartridge, but they soon adopted a centerfire cartridge. With tons of the older rimfire ammunition still around, modifications were performed so that the rifles could fire either centerfire or rimfire by simply backing out the screw on the left side of the breech block and putting the firing pin through the appropriate aperture. This specimen was manufactured in Denmark in 1883, having been licensed to do so by Remington and paying a royalty. It features a reversible firing pin for either centerfire or rimfire ammunition. “KJOBENHAVNS TOIHUUS, 1883” is stamped into the receiver tang, which is the arsenal and year of manufacture. Crowned proof marks can be found throughout. The front sight is windage adjustable and the rear sight is a large folding leaf going out to an optimistic 2100 meters. The overall condition is fine. Original finish. The action is excellent and strong. The bore is excellent, bright with sharp rifling. The numbers match. The stock shows use and remains near fine otherwise. A great example of a unique military rolling block rifle! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 35-3/8 inches. Caliber: 11.7x51R 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 $1800 #228096 SOLD Antique: Yes |
