RARE REMINGTON BEALS ARMY PERCUSSION REVOLVER.

SN 1173. Cal. 44. Blue finish with 8″ oct bbl, dovetailed German silver cone front sight with grooved top strap rear sight. Frame, bbl & cylinder are blue finished with color case hardened hammer and silver plated brass trigger guard. Mounted with smooth 2-pc walnut grips numbered to this revolver. Buttstrap bears the white ink number “FB-182”. This number is similar to the markings frequently found on specimens from the famous Karl Moldenhauer Collection. Grips, although matching numbered, do not exhibit inspector cartouches, however various other metal parts of this revolver have small inspector initials. Few Beals Army revolvers remain today with only about 1,900 produced in the period 1861-1862. They were virtually all issued to Union troops and saw continuous service throughout the Civil War and later on the American frontier, usually under harsh and adverse conditions with very limited or no maintenance. PROVENANCE: Collection of Robert Roughton. CONDITION: Very fine to extremely fine. Bbl retains 94-95% glossy orig blue with light muzzle & sharp edge wear; rammer handle retains about 75% thin orig blue; frame retains 60-70% flaked orig blue with the loss areas a light patina; hammer retains about all of its brilliant orig case colors; trigger guard retains 60-65% orig silver plating; front & backstraps are a gray metal patina and the buttstrap is a light brown patina; cyl retains 60-65% glossy orig blue with a light drag line. Right grip has a repaired crack, otherwise grips are sound showing light to moderate edge wear and overall retain about 50% orig finish. Mechanics are crisp, brilliant shiny bore. A rare Civil War era revolver in truly exceptional condition. 52328-2 (5,000-7,000) – Lot 1328
