Got busy this afternoon and made the pistol a holster.

Remington- Rider ,32 rimfire

Just added this to my collection, thinking it might have been manufactured in the late 1860s, definitely was percussion before conversion. Small crack in the left side cover plate but don't anticipate it as too serious.

Re: Remington Smoot #2

Your gun is magnificent and truly one of a kind. I have ordered the book that you mention and looking forward to getting it. It might give me an idea as to when, possibly, the gun would have been manufactured.

Remington Smoot #2

My Remington arrived today and looks to be in decent shape. Serial number is 928 stamped 1873 on the barrel. I guess no way to get an actual manufacturing date? Bore looks decent clear lands and grooves with some black powder pitting here and there but nothing serious.
