Description
A Remington New Model 1858 Patent .44 Revolver The Remington Model 1858 .44 caliber six-shot revolver was the major competitor to the Colt Model 1860 Army during the Civil War. This is a fine example of the Remington and bears a serial number of "98455" stamped under the 8" octagonal barrel. The walnut grips are in good condition and the gun has an overall dark gray patina and a nice contrasting brass trigger guard. The top of the barrel is stamped with "Patented Sept. 14, 1858 E. Remington & Sons, Ilion, New York, U.S.A. New Model." This revolver comes with a light brown leather period holster with a brass finial. It has a 3" belt loop at the rear and a flap cover that is missing approximately 3" of the leather at the top and is open at the end.This was the last percussion model Remington made in .44 caliber and was used extensively during the Civil War. Along with the holster it makes an excellent presentation piece.
