Re: New member and a what is it......
Greg: If the barrel address is readable it should say "NEW MODEL". "REMINGTON NEW MODEL NAVY REVOLVER" It has been converted to cartridge, or more likely left the factory as a cartridge gun. It does appear to be complete, grips could be original, if not, it would have had wooden ...

Re: Remington 1858 revolver. No 135044
Mike..."billt" is our resident expert on the 58. Is it percussion or converted to cartridge, if converted the cylinder # won't match. I'm sure he will reply as soon as he sees your request..........Jim

Re: RESEARCH PROJECT: BELT/RYDER REVOLVERS
Hi Henry: No serial number listed, so I can't add it to the list.
Asking more that 2X value.
He does not know what he has, says SA, wrong, that is why it won't cock. DA only as you know...................Jim
Has Remington and Sons, could be an early one. Asked for serial #, but may not answer me...

Re: Identifying bullet mold
IMHO: The cased sets of percussion Remington revolvers that I've seen, assuming they are original, have the type mold you pictured. The rounded spruce cutter is generally attributed to Remington revolvers, but not sure if made at Remington or purchased. The different sizes of the castings, is not no...
