Serial no. 61530, caliber .44. The 8? octagonal barrel has a bore with strong rifling and minor light corrosion. The cylinder does not have a matching number but the color matches the rest of the metal and the cylinder was probably mismatched in the field. The metal appears to have an arsenal reblue that is thin in spots and turning plum. The walnut grips have been refinished and show a light inspector’s cartouche. The barrel is slightly loose in the frame and the front of the frame has a small punch mark where someone tried to tighten it. This could easily be corrected by an competent amateur gunsmith. The mechanism works well. This Remington was a government purchase during the Civil War.

This is an antique revolver and transfers with no federal restrictions.
