Amos R. Davis (d. 1894) was a riflemaker in Deposit, New York, just north of the New York and Pennsylvania line starting around 1850. At least one of his guns was engraved by L.D. Nimschke of New York City and appears in his pull-book. The rifle is cut and drilled for the included false muzzle and starter and has a dovetailed globe front sight, "A.R. DAVIS/DEPOSIT N.Y./CAST-STEEL" marked on top, "REMINGTON/CAST STEEL" on the lower left flat, a ramrod fitted underneath, nicely shaped bolster on the breech, peep sight threaded into the upper tang, back action lock, adjustable single set trigger, German silver furniture, checkered wrist, elongated oval cheekpiece, and a Swiss style buttplate.
