CASED ENGRAVED CONSECUTIVE NUMBERED PAIR OF REMINGTON SINGLE ACTION BELT MODEL CONVERSION REVOLVERS. SN 3158 & 3159. Cal. .38RF. Both revolvers are virtually identical with silver finish, 6-1/2″ oct bbls, silver half moon front sights and silver-plated brass trigger guards. Mounted with 2-pc smooth rosewood grips matching numbered to their respective revolvers. Revolvers are identically engraved by master engraver L.D. Nimschke with about 80% coverage foliate and geometric patterns with fine pearled background on frames which extends over 7 of 8 flats of bbls, down backstraps, on buttstraps and trigger guards. Cylinders are engraved in matching patterns with about 40% coverage. Accompanied by a beautiful oak box customized from an English cutlery casing. Interior is black velvet-lined and French fitted in bottom for the two revolvers & an oak cartridge block with holes for 63 cartridges containing 15 orig copper-cased cartridges. According to Flayderman’s Guide to Antique American Firearms, there were only 2,500 to 3,000 of these scarce revolvers produced in the period 1865-1873. While examples of this model are occasionally encountered, very few were engraved with silver finish pieces being extremely rare & consecutive numbered sets nearly unknown. PROVENANCE: Michael Leff Estate Collection. CONDITION: Very fine to extremely fine, all matching inc. grips. Overall both revolvers retain most of their orig silver finish. Grips on both revolvers show light to moderate handling & use nicks & scratches and retain sharp edges with most of their orig finish remaining. Mechanics are fine, strong sharp bores with very fine pitting. Case is extremely fine. 4-49651 (30,000-45,000)
