Re: Whitney bayonets for Remington rifles

I do believe I have an example of the top bayonet.
I guess the cleaning rod would have to be shorter than usual to clear the bayonet in that position.
I wonder why they chose to change the traditional position of the bayonet?

Many thanks for the into. How would I tell if it's a model 29 barrel? Also, any way I can get more info on the Pasco PD marking?

WTB: Stock (or pieces) for Remington-Lee 1882 or 1885

Trying to restore a Remington-Lee Model 1882 Army rifle, with a shortened stock. Looking to buy the front half of a stock or whole stock. I think a stock (or piece) from an 1885 Navy Model is essentially the same. Please e-mail me at: gmkmd@aol.com
