Beware of scammers.

I just noticed that this was posted in the advertising section. You will have much better luck if you repost in the post 1898 shotgun section.
Good luck,

Hi Henry,
That it surely does, and usually a lot faster than we're ready for! And I'm 78. If nothing else, the monograph will provide a good starting point for those that follow
down the Belt path. A lot of searching and legwork went into that project, and the bibliography will prevent going over ...

Hi Henry,

Yes, Jim & I worked together for a few years, and he had health problems off and on during the time we worked on this project. Jim was in his 70s living in FL. He responded when I sent the first monograph draft for his input, and again when I sent the finalized first edition of the ...

Hello 14blw,


Nice close up shots, but you also need views of the pistol overall, and of the cylinder in the frame.

Your New Model Army revolver was made on Gov contract in August, 1864. The number 118 is a conversion number.

Is it a rim fire, or a center fire? Is the cylinder a two piece with ...

My RB collector friend is still out of town, but he sent a mssg a couple of days ago and said the same, that the NJ and the Springfield were the only RBs that he knew of that had the safety. but he didn't know if they had the same design, or if the Rem made RBs had a different safety. He should be ...

Hi Marlinman,

Thanks fot the info. Interesting, I'm surprised that Springfield made any Rolling Blocks, since the Army had already decided to convert rifles in stock.

Hi,
You'll get more info if you post in the rifle section, pre 1898.

Good luck,
Daniel

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the additional info. I have Flayderman's book so I'll look it up, but Flayderman isn't always right, and he often repeats 60-70 year old info that has never been verified, so I always want a second source, that doesn't use
Flayderman as a source.
This is getting interesting.n ...

Here we go. The 1910 is with a friend right now so I can't check it. It is a No 1 frame chambered for 7x57.

I have learned that Google can give lots of "hits" but when it comes to remmies, most of the info is bad. Or Google will list the same "hit" several times, leading to a waste of time. But ...

Hi Jim,

Now I'm really confused. Remember I don't know much about the RB rifle, so I'm easily confused. My 1910 RB doesn't lower the hammer at all when the breech block is closed on a round.

You also said that you had 2 RBs, and one was made at Springfield, but I am unaware that any RBs were ...

Hi Jim,

What is a "locking action?" I'm just familiar with the basics of the Rolling Block rifles,
and haven't heard of a "locking action."

Thanks,
Daniel

Hello to the Remmy fans,

It's time to remind all that this research project still continues, and we are still looking for info on all Belt Models, the SAs and the DAs, or Riders. So far we have over 300 numbers, and have come to a few conclusions based of the info provided, including a very ...

Sept 64 would be: serials: 96,521 - 101-360.

Hi Jim,

According to Don Ware's book, there were 12 final inspectors of the Navy and Army models. 6 of the 12 used 3 letters. 7 of the 12 are unidentified.
CGC - C. G. Curtis, and early inspector.
WAT - William A. ?Thornton, inspected contract arms for the Ordinance Dept.
OWA - O.W. Ainsworth ...

The capital letter "C" does mean that part is condemned. Once that part was replaced, the final inspector would stamp his cartouche in the grip.Rem would use main of the condemned parts to build guns for the civilian trade. What other info are you looking for?
Daniel.
