Recently a friend showed me a family heirloom 44 Army Remington from the Civil War. Manufactured in 1864 and carried in the war by an officer in a New York regiment. Here are some pics:
As you can see it has a lot of finish left.
Strong inspectors cartouche.
Matching inspector marks on frame and barrel.
Serial number on underside of barrel. Re-stamp or re-barrel?
Inspectors mark on cylinder.
Manufactures markings on barrel top.
Any information anyone can provide is welcome. I know my way around Colt SAAs and bit about their C&Bs, but Remingtons are an un known to me. Many thanks.
