Remington Society

I would say Forged. All the rolling blocks were forged. If you have the book on the rolling block pistols it gives a phase by phase series of events. Starting with a piece of bar stock heated white hot and then multiple trips to a trip hammer equipped with dies to form the parts. Pretty interesting ...

This model was offered with only a plated frame, rest blue finish according to an article by Don Ware and posted here on this forum. It's a nice honest gun and those grips may have been factory, they charged more for pearl grips then ivory but they did offer them.

Were theses revolvers made with forged steel frames or cast?

I just finished reading this and thought I would share. I was surprised on how many fakes were out there.

Hello from California. I have collected Remington firearms for years and was a forum member, but work got in the way of guns. So now that I'm retired more guns.
