Manufactured from 1863 to 1875, this is an example of a Transitional Model of the Remington New Model Army Revolver. Transitional Models have the Old Model style barrel marking without "New Model" ("PATENTED SEPT. 14. 1858 / E. REMINGTON & SONS. ILION NEW YORK. U.S.A") and the cone front sight. Single letter inspection marks (A, J, and G) are found on most of the components. Fitted with smooth walnut grips.

Fine. The barrel retains 50% of the original blue finish and the loading lever retains traces of blue in the protected areas, with an overall balance a smooth brown patina with some minor spotting. The cylinder and frame have a smooth brown-gray patina. The slightly ill-fitting replacement grips are fair with a couple chipped toes and some texturing to the finish. Grips could not be removed. The action needs work as the cylinder does not rotate when the action is cycled.
