Early REMINGTON-WHITMORE 1873 SxS Hammer SHOTGUN
Description:
Early REMINGTON-WHITMORE 1873 SxS Hammer SHOTGUN
FIRST YEAR 2-Digit Serial Number Made in 1873!
Here we present an antique Remington Whitmore Model 1873 Double Barrel Hammer Shotgun, manufactured in Ilion, New York in 1873. The Model 1873 was the first double-barrel, breech-loading shotgun produced by E. Remington & Sons and first appeared in the fall of 1873. Early on, there were many collectors and writers that called this shotgun a Model 1874, but this is not correct. Present day collectors and researchers now call this a Remington Whitmore Model 1873 shotgun. E. Remington & Sons did not call any of the Whitmore guns by model designations, rather they called this particular gun a “Hammer Lifter”. The Model 1873 is easily distinguished from other Whitmore models, not only by the top sliding plate, but also by the unusual hammer design. This type of hammer appears only on a Model 1873 and has recessed faces similar to muzzle loader hammers. If a hammer is found with a flat face it has been filed down.
The exact number of Model 1873 shotguns produced is unknown, as records no longer exist. However, research indicates production can be fairly accurately estimated at 5,000. Model 1873 Hammer Lifter shotguns start with serial number 1 and the highest recorded Model 1873 is 4475. The Remington Model 1873 Hammer Lifter is a very distinctive, one-of-a-kind design not used by any other manufacturer. Occasionally it does confuse people with the other Whitmore models, but after one learns to identify this gun with its top plate and unique hammers, there is no other shotgun like it. Very few are ever seen at gun shows anymore and they are becoming a much sought after shotgun by collectors.
The barrel address is “E. Remington & Sons, Ilion N.Y.”. It’s equipped with 2 ¾” chambers, improved cylinder/improved cylinder chokes, and has a 13 ¾” LOP.
The overall condition is very good. The barrels still display their Damascene pattern. The markings are clear. The numbers match. The butt stock has been repaired at the wrist. The splinter forearm has been replaced, maintaining the original hardware. The bores are semi-bright with light texture throughout. The action remains strong.
