Description

Remington 1858 New Model Army Revolver, .44 caliber, altered to cartridge (originally percussion), stamped on the frame: "C.A. 194." The gun appears to have been refinished, and exhibits some pitting to the metal. This is an antique firearm and transfers with no federal restriction.

The Remington 1858 New Model Army Revolver was widely used by Union soldiers during the Civil War, often preferred over the Colt 1860 Army due to its solid-frame design, which provided greater strength and reliability. This revolver became a staple sidearm for cavalry, officers, and sharpshooters—it was famously favored by William F. 'Buffalo Bill' Cody—contributing to its legacy as one of the most effective handguns of the era.
