Nice REMINGTON & SONS Antique MILITARY .43 SPANISH Rolling Block SR CARBINE 19th Century INDIAN WARS Era Military Style Rifle
Description: Nice REMINGTON & SONS Antique MILITARY .43 SPANISH Rolling Block SR CARBINE 19th Century INDIAN WARS Era Military Style Rifle Here we present an antique E. Remington & Sons Military Pattern Rolling Block Saddle Ring Carbine, made circa the 1870s in Ilion, New York. The Remington Rolling Block rifle is a breech-loading rifle that was produced from the mid-1860s into the early 20th century by E. Remington and Sons (later Remington Arms Company). The action was extremely strong, and could easily withstand the increased pressure of the new smokeless powders coming into use by the late 1880s. The Remington Rolling Block had a sturdy, simple action that was relatively inexpensive, just what many governments wanted in the latter half of the 19th Century. They were popular with civilians as well. Along with the Sharps rifle it was one of two rifles probably used more than any other by the buffalo hunters who hunted the American bison herds in the 1870s and 1880s. Civilian Remington rolling block rifles, and later surplus military rifles, became very popular among hunters in Scandinavia, particularly for moose hunting, with ammunition for the rifles being commonly available on the civilian market into the 1920s-1930s. The .43 Spanish was a centerfire cartridge developed by Remington designers around 1867. It was used in early rolling block rifles that Remington manufactured for the government of Spain. The overall condition is very good. Gray patina throughout. The action is excellent. The bore is bright with strong rifling. The stock shows use and remains solid. There is one set of initials carved into the forestock that appear to be “J.S.”. There is a faint name on the left side of the butt stock. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 20-1/2 inches. Caliber: .43 Spanish Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $2000 #240366 Price: $2,000.00 Buy Now Antique: Yes Contact Seller |
