Re: Relic New Model Pocket with Very High SN

DUEL FINISH SMOOT's

When we think of duel finish Remington revolvers, we think of Nickel with the chose of Gold Plate or Gold Wash on the cylinder, hammer and/ or screws. However, I believe there was another chose. Research shows that blue was combined with nickel on the Model 3,4 and some 1875 SA's. Existing catalogs ...
