Documented Civil War Production New Haven Arms Co. Henry Lever Action Rifle

Lot 7

Civil War Production New Haven Arms Co. Henry Rifle

Manufactured in May 1865. The barrel is fitted with a slightly filed nickel silver, square back front sight (appears original to the rifle) and a carefully aged modern replacement dovetail mounted folding rear sight with 900 yard center notch. The receiver tang has been drilled and tapped for a tang sight. The stock has a sling swivel on the left side. A screw fastened sling loop is located on the left side of the barrel. The serial number is stamped on the top barrel flat, left side of the lower tang, upper tang inlet of the stock and inside of the buttplate. The late style cap head buttplate and tang screws are, correctly, not serial numbered. The serial number of this rifle falls close within the serial numbers of 127 Henry rifles purchased by the Ordnance Department on May 16, 1865 and issued to Companies B, C, I, H and K of the 3rd U.S. Veteran Volunteer Infantry (VVI) Regiment (see page 76 of "The Historic Henry Rifle" by Wiley Sword). The 3rd VVI was one of 10 infantry regiments recruited from veteran soldiers during late 1864 and early 1865. These troops were intended to be an elite unit and were armed with Henry, Sharps and Spencer rifles. As an incentive for volunteers, members of the VVI regiments were authorized to retain their rifles on discharge. The Civil War ended before the VVI regiments saw action. The 3rd VVI was organized at Camp Stoneman in the District of Columbia in February and March 1865. The regiment served in the Washington defenses, the Shenandoah Valley and at Camp Butler, Illinois before it mustered out of service on July 20, 1866. The 127 Henry rifles purchased by the Ordnance Department in May 1865 have no Ordnance inspection marks or other distinguishing markings and can only be identified by serial number records in regimental orderly books.

Scarce Egyptian Contract Remington Model 1875 Single Action Army Revolver

Lot 14

Egyptian Remington Model 1875 Single Action Army Revolver

Manufactured c. 1875-1889. Egyptian contract markings: "JWR" cartouche on left grip panel and "star R" on left side of barrel at breech. The Egyptian government placed an order for 10,000 Remington Model 1875 Army Revolvers. An unknown number of these revolvers were manufactured before Remington decided to stop production because Egypt still owed the company several hundred thousand dollars for rolling block rifles and carbines. The fact that almost every known specimen has turned up in the U.S. supports the conclusion that Remington never delivered a single Model 1875 revolver to the Egyptian government. With 1975 dated safety inspection certificate indicating revolver was owned by U.S. Navy Lt. Commander Arthur J. Tuttle. Provenance: The Arthur J. Tuttle Collection

New Haven Arms Co. Volcanic Lever Action Carbine

This Volcanic carbine was manufactured by the New Haven Arms Co. circa 1860 and has a polished brass receiver and crescent buttplate. Most Volcanic carbines featured factory scroll engraving and examples like this one with a plain finish are rare. The carbine has a 16 inch blued octagon barrel and integral magazine with casehardened hammer, trigger and loading lever. The straight grain walnut stock has an oil finish. The barrel has a nickel-silver cone front sight blade. A wheel-adjustable rear sight was originally mounted in a dovetail on the receiver; the rear sight has been replaced with a period fixed aperture rear sight. The top of the barrel is roll-stamped: "PATENT" and "FEB 14, 1854". This modified legend was introduced in April 1857 after Oliver Winchester took control of the Volcanic Repeating Arms Co. and reorganized it as the New Haven Arms Co. The serial number is stamped right side of the loading lever. The New Haven Arms Co. manufactured an estimated total of 1,000 Volcanic carbines between 1857 and 1860.
