The weapon will then be brought up to the EU specification and the relevant certificate obtained prior to the transfer of ownership and delivery**. The Remington 1858 New Model Army Revolvers were used during the American Civil War and the design was the beginning of a successful line of medium and large frame percussion revolvers. Due to limited availability of Colt 1860 Army Revolvers at the time, large numbers of the Remington revolver were ordered by the U.S. Government. It was favoured for its durability. The Remington design lives on today in the form of quality black powder firearms from Italian manufacturers Uberti, Pietta, and Euroarms. This Italian made example of the 1858 New Model Army revolver is in excellent condition. The pistol has an 8” octagonal barrel and measures 14” overall. The polished steel metal work has Italian inspection marks and it has an undamaged wood grip. Deactivated to UK specification in 2006 the pistol cocks and dry fires correctly in single action only. The pistol has a blade fore sight and grooved frame rear sight. The price includes deactivation certificate & UK delivery. D 1551
