REMINGTON NEW YORK STATE CONTRACT .50-70 CALIBER ROLLING BLOCK MILITARY RIFLE.
Description: REMINGTON NEW YORK STATE CONTRACT .50-70 CALIBER ROLLING BLOCK MILITARY RIFLE. This is an early example with the last patent date of 1871 located on the uppr tang. Later New York rifles have patent dates up to 1874. A particularly nice example, the receiver is an uncleaned gray/brown. The barrel is similarly an aged brown with a touch of gray- these left the factory "in the white" or bright, unfinished. Wood is generally excellent with a few handling dings and tight wood to metal fit. There is a clear cartouche on the left wrist as well as typical rack numbers on the wrist and in the top of the butt plate. The New York rifles have the same action as the 1871 Army rifles built at Springfield, in which the hammer falls slightly to a safety position when the rifle is loaded and the breech block closed. To fire the hammr is pulled back minutely to full cock. This is a feature that should have been incorporated into all Rolling Block actions. Probably would have saved a lot of unintended discharges on the battle fields, hunting fields and target ranges! Tight action that functions correctly. Fairly bright bore with sharp rifling throughout and some light scattered surface roughness that might brush out better- still a fine bore as is. Cleaning rod intact (these often missing) and comes with the correct unmarked angular bayonet.
