[Stephane]

i am french and
I was hoping someone might be able to provide date of manufacture for my remington new model army

The number on the underside of barrel and under the handle stock reads:
57466 inspector stamp GP

Thank you for any info you might be able to unearth.

Hello Stephane,

Your revolver was made in February of 1864. The inspector stamp on the left grip (GP) is the cartouche of George Palmer a civilian principal sub-inspector who inspected Remington Revolvers at Utica, NY from June 1863 to December 1864.

I hope this helps,

Bill
