Description:

Manufactured c. 1862. This revolver is discussed on page 355 of the included copy of "Remington Army and Navy Revolvers 1861-1888" by Donald L. Ware who writes, "I recently acquired a true Beals Army that is numbered 3,242, which is well into the Elliot Army serial number range. This suggests that the revolver was assembled and numbered in sequence with the Elliot production. The revolver has inspection marks and the cartouche of 'CGC.'"
