MARTIALLY MARKED REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY PERCUSSION REVOLVER.

MARTIALLY MARKED REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY PERCUSSION REVOLVER. SN 92034. Cal 44. Blue finish with 8″ oct bbl with pinched post front sight and usual 3-line address. Trigger guard is brass and it is mounted with 2-pc smooth walnut grips, matching numbered to this revolver. Left grip has a crisp “BH” cartouche and several of the misc. parts are marked with small inspector initials. The Remington New Model Army was extremely popular during the Civil War for it’s ease of changing an empty cylinder for a loaded one versus the more prolific Colt Model 1860 Army which had to be disassembled to exchange cylinders. These revolvers served throughout the Civil War and later on the American Frontier usually under very harsh circumstances with limited or no maintenance and are rarely found today with high orig finish. CONDITION: Extremely fine. Bbl retains about 98% glossy orig blue and the rammer handle about 40% blue with the balance flaked, not worn, to a medium patina. Frame retains 50-60% glossy orig blue with the balance flaked, not worn, to a medium patina. Front and backstraps are also flaked to a light patina. Cylinder retains 96-98% glossy orig blue and appears to be unfired. Grips are crisp with 3 or 4 small nicks and retain virtually all of their orig oil finish. Hammer retains faded case colors. Mechanics are crisp, brilliant shiny bore. 4-49606 JR43 (6,000-12,000)
