Original size .36 Remington
« on: March 03, 2012, 09:45:49 PM »
Some time back, a friend of mine had a .36 Remington that was smaller and lighter than the current Pietta "Navies" that seem to be .44 size New Armies. I cannot find the name of the maker as I no londer have contact with him. He was a CW reenactor. I always wanted one like it because it was a sweet feeling belt gun. Does anone know who made an original size navy reproduction? It seemed well made and I thought it was a uberti, but I don't see one listed now.

Thanks for the help.

The  "Euroarms" replicas are made to the size of the original Remingtons.
Beware the man with one gun, he probably knows how to use it.

This shows the difference. Both .36, Uberti on the left, Euroarms on right. (Prettiest wood I've seen, so I'm sure the former owner had custom wood grips mounted.)
The Euroarms is dated 1971, the Uberti is 1999

You are probably talking about a Lyman marked Uberti in 36.
I have one I can compare for you if you like..........

Watch Gunbroker, they come up on there often.

CH; You missed a good time at the NCOWS convention at Shepherdsville this past weekend, we had a good turn out of vendors.
Walt Kirst and Raven were in attendance and gave a seminar on conversions.
Hope to see you next year hopefully.

Uberti, also, years ago made the 36 the proper size.  both Pietta and Uberti now use the 44 frame for economy, I presume,  It's a shame, as the correct Remington 36 is a very handy and pretty size.

Here's the granddaddy of all the Remmy .36s.  A first year production, serial number 31, pre-Uberti.  Maker mark is "GU" which is short for Gregorelli and Uberti.  Imported by Navy Arms "Bogota, NJ."
