CASED Antique REMINGTON New Model NAVY Perc. Revolver NAVAL NAVIGATOR TOOLS Scarce; One of 28,000 Revolvers Manufactured
Description: CASED Antique REMINGTON New Model NAVY Perc. Revolver NAVAL NAVIGATOR TOOLS Scarce; One of 28,000 Revolvers Manufactured Here we present an antique Cased Remington New Model Navy Percussion 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. This revolver lacks the anchor stamp found on some U.S. Navy Remington revolvers. 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. This example comes with a wooden case with a brass inset plaque on the lid inscribed “U.S. Navy/No. 60” with an “N” in a circle in the upper left hand corner. Inside the case is a Colt Patent mold and a “DIETZGEN/GERMANY” marked navigational compass and divider set in a black leather bound case with “NAVIGATOR’S CASE / U.S. NAVY” in gold on the lid and “EUGENE DIETZGEN Co. / CHICAGO-NEW YORK / SAN FRANCISCO-NEW ORLEANS” on the bottom center and “GERMANY” in the upper left hand corner. The overall condition is fine. Original finish. The action is excellent. The bore is in fine condition, shiny bright with sharp rifling. The grips show use and remain solid. Numbers match.
