Antique REMINGTON “New Model” NAVY Revolver .36 Perc. CIVIL WAR WILD WEST 

One of the Very Best Revolvers of the ACW!

Here we present an antique Remington New Model Navy Revolver manufactured in Ilion, New York. Remington manufactured approximately 28,000 of the .36 caliber New Model Navy revolvers between 1863 and 1875. About 4,300 of these revolvers were purchased by the U.S. Navy. There were three progressive models made by Remington. They were the Remington-Beals Army & Navy (1860–1862), the 1861 Army & Navy (1862–1863), and the New Model Army & Navy (1863–1875). The three models are nearly identical in size and appearance. Subtle but noticeable differences in hammers, loading levers, and cylinders help identify each model. The 1861 Remington actually transitioned into New Model appearance by late 1862, slowly transforming throughout 1862, due to continual improvement suggestions from the U. S. Ordnance Department.

This solid frame revolver came with a high polish blue finish on the barrel, frame and cylinder. The hammer has a casehardened finish and the trigger is niter blue. The trigger guard is brass. The two-piece walnut grips are oil finished. The top of the octagon barrel is roll-stamped “PATENTED SEPT. 14, 1858/E. REMINGTON & SONS, ILLION, NEW YORK, U.S.A./NEW-MODEL” in three lines. Many of these were converted to a .38 caliber metallic cartridge before ever leaving the factory, as the Rollin-White patent was expiring.

The overall condition is fine. Original blue finish. The action is excellent. The bore is bright with sharp rifling. Grips are solid. Numbers match.
