I'm not a gunsmith, but I have several 51's
I agree with Steven, since the barrel is pined to the frame, the problem must be with the breach block and/or the slide.

The Richard A Bourne Auction Catalog of the Karl F Moldenhauer collection , October 29 1980,
has hand drawn sketches, showing some differences between the Belt Model Single Action (SA) and the Rider Double Action (DA). You will also see listed 5 SA's and 10 DA's with descriptions

Re: Question just got a model 12
I would say you have a Model 12, that has had the barrel replaced with a Model 121. I have one like this.
Look on the left side of the barrel near the receiver, there should be some code letters which will date the barrel.
There might even be a "3", indicating it was done at the factory. Most ...

Just verifying my lack of internet technology.

Re: Remington rolling block no. 2
The Remington catalog of 1902 lists the #2 Rolling Block as being available in various
rim fire and center fire calibers. It does show that it was available in C F 25-20, 25-21, & 25-25 Stevens. As well as 25-10 Stevens R F.
Sorry, I can't help with reloading information.

jetmek,
I'm sorry to report that Charles Semmer has passed away.
I don't recall how many years ago, but his legacy is in his book.

Re: Odd three letter barrel code?

I agree with researcher the "A" is an inspector mark and the date code is RP 11/67.
This is based on my 600A ERI SN 043xxV which is dated OP 7/67.
I hope this helps!

Re: Need help with Remington 1875
Texas Jack,
While your 1875 is all original Remington, it is composed of two different issues.
The frame with its high serial no. and round firing pin are from a later production.
While the barrel with the pinched front sight is from the earlier production.
My guess is the barrel, ejector, and ...

The new old R-51
A source, which I believe to be very reliable, has told me that Remington will be reintroducing the Model R-51
in the very near future. Maybe early in July. I'm told it will be much improved over their first release!
Watch for it.

According to the book Remington Rolling Block Pistols by Jerry Landskron, 1981(this is the Bible on these)!
He states the first numbers on the left trigger and grip straps, are assembly numbers, and the second no. on the top strap is the Serial No. However, there are some exceptions.

In all my years of collecting Remington's I've never seen any reference to rifles with more than double barrels.
It is believed that Remington only made barrels for the trade, until the 1840's. There are a couple of double barrel
percussion rifles known, but it is questionable if they were ...

Re: Yes, another 51 question by a new guy....
To remove the slide, you have to move it to the rear, then grasp the barrel and pull the barrel and slide forward.
I hope this helps.

Re: Log-in issues?
I can't help with a fix.
Just wanted to say I had the same problem a week or so ago. After re-signing in things have been OK.
Are you still having trouble? If so, I guess admin will have to address the problem.
