Re: Model 1858

Dan
At a closer (much closer) look the grip panel numbers are indeed 3 digits of the serial number.
Yes, the barrel number and the frame number do match.
Yes, the nipples are missing. Also, the cylinder rotates freely so I guess there is no cylinder stop is missing. Are those sold also?

Re: Model 1858

Thanks Dan.
Here are pics of the gun and inside the left grip panel.
There is pencil writing on the inside of the grips if that could be any help. "45" on one and "697" on the other.
Just trying to get a good reading on this gun so I can move it on to my son.

Model 1858

I have a gun that has been passed down in the family for years. It is a Remmington .44 cal, patented Sep14,1958. The serial number on the barrel is 144624. I'm wondering if anyone would have any information about this weapon. Any help would be appreciated.
