Description:

The Model 1863 was manufactured by the Remington Arms Co. through contracts with the Ordnance Department for ".58 caliber Harpers Ferry pattern rifles." Nearly 10,000 are reported to have been sold via Bannermans in the early 20th century. There are also some reports that Model 1863s were among the surplus arms sold to the French government for the Franco-Prussian War. It has standard markings and features with two cartouches on the stock.

Rating Definition:

Fine, retains 60% plus thinning blue finish and darkened casehardened colors, mostly bright brass, and scattered light handling marks. The reoiled wood is fine and has some minor dings and scratches consistent with use, and some minor chipping and a repair along the ramrod channel. Mechanically excellent.
