			PRISTINE 1890 REMINGTON S.A. Simply the best that exists. Unfired, virtually mint in every respect. This example bears a two digit serial number and the .44 cal. markings is on the left side of the barrel instead of the left frame. This has been observed only on the first 100 or so produced. If you want the finest, look no further. PRICE $30,000.00 Click here to ask us about this item.

			REMINGTON .41 CAL. OVER & UNDER DERINGER A spectacular example with the Remington Arms Co. address (A very rare variation as the address has the lower case "o" in the Co.)this beautiful blued example seldom survives with so much bright shiny finish. The only finish missing is in the areas where the arm has been handled on the backstrap and butt with some flaking on the frame and some slight wear on the sides of the muzzle. I have had a few of these over many years however this is one of the best I have encountered. M.O.P. grips as new. PRICE $4,000.00 Click here to ask us about this item.

			REMINGTON (2Line) O/U DERINGER This example is a close second to the one above. Although they appear black here the grips are the original Rosewood in very fine condition. The nickel remaining is about 96-97% and the original blue has turned dark but most remains. Again this would be hard to improve on. PRICE $2,950.00 Click here to ask us about this item.

			REMINGTON BEALS ARMY (CIVILIAN) To the Remington collector this model is almost as rare as the Walker is to the Colt collector. We are offering for sale serial number 362 which was manufactured prior to supplying the U.S. government with approximately 1,000 of these in the first contract. It had a crude repair to the high hammer spur but we were able to obtain an original hammer (not a copy) which is consistant with the original finish. This exception example with a smooth brown patina overall and excellent original grips would be almost impossible to duplicate.. The bore is dirty but shows rifling. This example is in very good working condition with much original blue on the underside of the loading lever, and has a clear sharp barrel address as well as all the proper factory inspection marks.

			BRITISH MADE 'TRANTER' DOUBLE ACTION REVOLVER This revolver retains about 15% original blue finish turning brown in some areas. The metal is smooth with no signs of rough handling or pitting and nicely scroll engraved on the frame,barrel, trigger guard and butt cap. The grips are Rosewood and finely checkered again in very fine condition. The serial number appears on the right side of the frame just below the cylinder and is 18916T probably mfg. about 1861. It is a five shot .442 calibre percussion mechanism. The top of the barrel is marked "J. Blanche and son, Grace Church St., London" who was a Military Arms dealer and exporter at the time. The barrel and frame are integral one piece of metal, an invention of "Adams" in 1851 and this is the model used to manufacture the "Masssachusettes Arms Co." revolver in the U.S. There is also a presentation example of this arm to a Confederate General.

			SPECTACULER 3RD. Model "TRANTER" Spur Trigger Another very unique example of this British made cap and ball revolver. It retains 90%+ bright original shiny blue with missing areas caused by some surface flaking and some slight browning. It is beautifully engraved to the barrel, frame, trigger guard and butt cap as well as the loading lever. This should be cased. It is a five shot, .442 cal. with perfect Rosewood grips very finely checkered. The serial number is 21588T circa 1864-66. Below the trigger guard is a spur trigger self cocking mechanism allowing the user to fire either single or double action. You will note there is no spur on the hammer. Hard to find or to improve on.

			REMINGTON (MARTIAL) NEW MODEL NAVY CONVERSION This model in original cap & ball configuration is one of the hardest to locate in fine original condition. The total production of Navy models was only about 40,000 and the first twenty were mostly to fill orders to the U.S. government for the Civil War and most were well used. The balance were primarily converted to cartridge both those produced near the end of the war & those after the war. During that short period of time the U.S. Governmanet ordered 1000 guns chanbered in .38 C.F. All known examples of this conversion are .38 R.F. except for the Government purchase. They bear no inspector's markings. Few collectors are aware of this order which was uncovered by research into the archives. This particular example retains about 70% of the original re-finish done at the time of conversion and #27 which was also added at that time. It is an exceptional example of this rare production and would have been priced higher, however the grips are replacements of the period of use. Accompanying this beautiful arm is an early original holster for this model with fine doeskin lining & decorated with hide which has the hair left on & what appears to be tiny pieces of red & blue trade cloth or wool. The overall in excellent plus condition. Both items are unique. 1. S O L D 2. Slim Jim Holster $3,950.00 Click here to ask us about this item.

			HISTORIC DERRINGER AND BOWIE Once again we are pleased to offer this unique pair which are authintically inscribed "Senator J.P. Jones, Gold Hill, Nevada". The derringer is a .41 cal. Remington with two line address in fine original condition with original Ivory grips circa 1870's and the Bowie is by "Manson" Sheffield also in fine condition. Jones was a mine guard, a miner, a sherrif and a high stakes poker player and well known and repsected in Gold Hill, Nevada which is now pretty well a ghost town. From this locale he was elected to the U.S. Senate and spent many years trying to get his "Silver Standard" proposal accepted in place of the existing "Gold Standard". Of course he never succeeded. This group was selected by the curator of the "Cody Firearms Museum" at the time (Howard Maddus) along with executive members of the Remington Society,to be displayed on a poster to advertise the display presented by the "The Remington Society of America" at Cody, Wyoming. A copy is included. P R I C E $11,750.00 Click here to ask us about this item.

			FINE BLUED 1875 REMINGTON Probably the total production of blued 1875's does not exceed 15% of the produced. Of those 7,500 perhaps 1,000 have survived. Of those I would rate this example in the top 1%. It retains 100% bright case colors on the hammer and loading gate. The bright blue is 90%+ with dulling primarily on the grip straps. The bore is bright & this marvelous specimen may not have ever been fired. The grips are excellent with a deep .44W on the left side. This is the earliest production with a pinched front sight. The later production bore a bright blade sight. Absolutely completely original and impossible to improve on.. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			"ETCHED PANEL" COLT S.A. " NEW YORK ENGRAVED " This is one of 5 guns shipped to "Hartley & Graham" on Oct. 11/1883. They were sent "Soft" with grips unlisted. This beautiful example was then "New York" engraved (meaning that H & G had the work done by one of the well known engravers in the area such as "Nimske") and they then fitted it with Ivory grips. By doing this they were able to supply deluxe examples at a better price than "Factory Engraved" ones. This gun has extensive engraving including scrolls to the end of the barrel and on the loading gate. The finish is bright nickel with well in excess of 95% remaining. The only loss being to the grip straps & minor freckling in some of the cylinder flutes. It appears virtually unfired. This is an exceptional example in all ways, suitable for the finest collection or museum. We have a copy of the cover of the CADA Journal picturing this very piece in 1991 and a receipt wherein it was sold for $26,000 in 1997. E-mail for more detailed photo's.

			EARLY COLT .45 S.A.A. " NEW YORK ENGRAVED " This while similar to the above example has many differences. It was shipped along with 50 others to John P. Moores & Sons in N.Y., N.Y. on Dec. 30/1876 (Serial in the 30,xxx range) blue, stocks not listed. The bright nickel finish has about 95%+ remaining, with loss mostly on top of frame and side of ejector rod housing indicating holster use. There is some minor freckling on the end of the barrel and in the cylinder flutes. Overall, this is another superb example with old Ivory grips that are probably not original to this gun but have several age cracks on the bottom. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			MINT MODEL 1836 JOHNSON FLINTLOCK PISTOL There were approx. 18,000 of this model mfg. between 1836 and 1844, however most were altered to percussion leaving a limited number in original flint. This magnificent specimen is dated 1842 and remains in near perfect, and I believe unfired condition. These were produced in the bright and while it may have been slightly cleaned there is no evidence of this. All markings and cartouches are correct, crisp and original. A medallion with the #20 has been installed on the right side of the stock and must be from a museum or private collection which may explain the remarkeable condition of this arm.

			FROM THE STAGECOACH MUSEUM COLLECTION A New York Engraved 1875 Remington Frontier pictured in the book that was printed at the time of the purchase of the collection. A copy of this book accompanies the gun. This example is a nickled gun with signs of original finish in the protected areas and most remaining on the web and trigger guard, 44-40 calibre and deep colored, varnished, walnut grips. The engraving was done by the same engraver who did the 1890 pictured elsewhere on this site. Engraving is crisp and clear with age patina in the recesses. The owner of the museum concentrated heavily on guns from the old west. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			DELUXE ENGRAVED 1875 REMINGTON (BLUED) We often see the remark "Factory Engraved" used in the description of an antique gun that has been embellished such as this one has. In actual fact few manufacturer's other than Colt had their own engravers on staff making the term inappropriate in my opinion. For this reason we refer to them as original engraved meaning engraved during original manufacture prior to being blued or plated. Most were done by a variety of masters in the New York area thus the term "New York Engraved". This is the only blued example I have encountered in over 40 years of collecting. It was obtained from "Mrs. Elsie Jackson" of "Jackson Arms in Dallas" and she told me it was her favourite. She was serious and I can see why. It does not have much original blue left other than in the protected areas however the surface is basically a grey patina with all of the engraving retaining crisp, sharp edges. The mechanics are fine, the grips are professionally made Ivory replacements which have been on this beautiful example for many years and bear an aged patina. A wonderful S.A.

			COLT S.A.A.- ETCHED PANEL-SHIPPED TO LAS VEGAS, TERRITORY OF NEW MEXICO Comes with Colt letter which states - Serial No. 123,206, Caliber-44/40,barrel-7 1/2", Finish-blue, Type of Stocks- Rubber, Shipped to-Manzanares & Co.,Address- Las Vegas, Territory of New Mexico, Date of Shipment-August 19,1887, Number of Same Type Guns in Shipment-50. Showing care and use this desireable S.A. still retains the original eagle grips showing wear but still in fine condition. The finish overall is a smooth grey with some dings and nicks but with all markings sharp and clear and with a reasonably visible etched panel. There is slight original blue in protected areas and the case coloring has silvered. This is an excellent example of a real cowboy gun with a superb letter.

			REMINGTON ZIG-ZAG DERINGER Have you ever examined one of these? This rare pepperbox was designed by one of Remington's most inovative inventors Wm. Elliot and was produced in 1861-2 in a quantity of less than 1,000. With normal survival rate of 10%, less than 100 exist to-day in any condition. Of interest to novelty, deringer, as well as Remington collectors they are seldom on the market for sale. This example is all original with just a couple of tiny chips in the original brown composition grips and the finish while turning a pleasing plumb brown remains to about 30-40%. Markings were faint but are clear and sharp. The caliber is .22 & the barrel holds 6 rounds. Truly unique and impossible to find. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			Near New Condition COLT #3 DERINGER A .41 Caliber, single shot deringer said to have been a favorite with gamblers carried in their vest pockets and ladies of the evening carried in their garters, this small arm packed a lethal load for it's time. Our example has seen great care and little use with most of the wear to the sides of the barrel and a minute area on the side of the silver plated frame. Most of the bright shiny blue remains on the barrel and 98% of the silver plate remains on the frame as does all of the varnish on the grips. The underside of the barrel bears English proofs which would indicate the English Agency as the point of sale. A superb addition to any collection.. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			EXCEPTIONAL EARLY ADAMS PATENT REVOLVER OF 1851 Appears identical to example pictured on page 264 of "British Military Firearms 1650-1850" by Howard L. Blackmore except this example has beautiful original engraving to the sides of the frame, backstrap and trigger guard. It is serial # 109 and is marked on the top barrel flat "Deane, Adams & Deane, 50 King Williams St. London Bridge" Retaining 95% bright blue to the frame and barrel assembly with the cylinder blue having mostly flaked and faded this is the earliest D.A. (Self-cocking) revolver, .54 bore (approx. .44 cal), with no hammer spur, and was made in 1851. The side of the frame is marked Adams Patent No 9454R. The bore is mint as are the finely checkered walnut grips. Blackmore also refers to this model in talking about an exhibition in which Samuel Colt participated and Adams example was far superior to Colt's. It is also known that some of these did make it to the U.S. before the Civil War. It is known one such example was carried by "Eugene Frederick Lykes" a confederate who was killed at the battle of 7 Pines. Seldom do we see such an early example offered for sale. It should be cased. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			SPRINGFIELD ARMS CO., (WARNER'S PATENT BELT MODEL) While lacking great condition this example makes up for it in rarity with "Flayderman #7A-104" stating production at only 100. Serial # 35 was manufactured circa 1851, bears the "Warner's Patent Jan. 1851" on the right side with about 50% legible and the rest having been warn away from use. Suprisingly the cylinder bears all of the etched panel scene. There is no finish remaining with the metal bearing a grey patina. All appears to be original and mechanically good. It is .31 cal, 6 shot with the longest barrel produced which is 6". Certainly a very acceptable representative of this super rare arm. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			1875 REMINGTON (EARLY PRODUCTION) A Remington .44 calibre, being the first production by the company. This example is well used and in need of minor repairs. Original finish was blue with traces remaining in protected areas but mostly turned to a smooth brown patina. The hand that turns the cylinder needs adjustment or a new spring and the cylinder retaining rod screw is missing but easily repaired or replaced. The grips appear to be original but probably not to this gun. Serial number is 3361 and these were not batch numbered. The bore is dark but should clean. The ammunition for this example is very scarce to-day. A good example of a cowboy gun to display in a period holster and priced reasoneable. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			REMINGTON (2 Line) O/U DERINGER This is the finest example of this model we have ever handled or seen.It has 99% original nickel and about 90%+ original bright blue on the hammer, Barrel catch lever and screws and mint pearls. The bores are bright and appears to be unfired. It is hard to even find any scratches to the surface. You will not find better. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			PERSONAL COLT S.A.A. & MAKER MARKED HOLSTER OF "MR. JIM HART" FOUNDER OF THE "HART RANCH" NEAR BILLINGS, MONTANA, WITH HISTORY This very special rig was obtained from the family by a dealer who in turn sold it to me a few years ago. It is just as Hart left it in very fine overall condition. It comes with colt letter which states "Serial No. 94649, Caliber .45/c, Barrel Length not listed, (but is 7 1/2") Finish Nickel,Type of Stocks Rubber,Shipped to Hibbard, Spencer, Bartlett & Company, Address Chicago, Illinois, Date of Shipment August 28,1883, Number of same Type Guns in Shipment 3." The gun shows moderate use but has been well cared for. Mechanically excellent and the bore should clean to very good with most of the rifling very distinct. The exterior finish shows mostly holster wear on the left side of the barrel and right side of the ejector housing as well as about 60% of the cylinder and the loading gate. Overall finish remaining is about 75%. The original eagle grips are near mint. The fine double loop "Territorial" Holster is marked "Rockwell and Torey Billings M.T." who are listed as being in business from the early 1880's. It is fine condition and was made without toe plug. This outfit comes with an article titled "Story of the Hart Ranch or the Old TI. A wonderful find with superb provinence. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			DELUXE REMINGTON 1875 NEW MODEL ARMY The famous Moldenhauer collection did not contain an original engraved 1875 never mind a Deluxe example obviously because of their scarcity. This example is silver plated on the frame & barrel with 98%+ on the barrel and 75%+ on the frame with a small area of roughness on the left side of the frame possibily caused from holster use perhaps with some dirt or sand.The cylinder, web and hammer have a gold wash. The original mother of pearl grips with floral carved decoration are the ultimate used on only the finest arms of the period. This beautiful Frontier piece will make an outstanding addition to any private or museum collection. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			SCOTTISH BRASS FLINTLOCK An all brass bodied Flintlock with bag style grip made by T. Murdoch. This beautiful little gun measures approvimately 9" overall and is dated on the backstrap 1784 under what appears to be the initials TL. Not many specimens are found dated. It has a belt hook on the left side and the overall is finely engraved. The half cock does not hold but otherwise in fine working condition. An excellent example for the discriminating collector.

			Early (1876) COLT .45 SINGLE ACTION ARMY Also known as the "Peacemaker" this was the favorite among early peace officers and since most of the early production was for the U.S. Government not many of the early civilian models were made or survived. This fine example was shipped to New York in 1876 and was stored in a beautiful slim jim holster with a Texas maker's logo imprinted in it for many years. It is completely original and has never been tampered with. A true "Attic condition" piece. There is considerable original bright shiny blue in the protected areas with the balance turning a mottled brown to grey. Extremely hard to find this decent anymore.

			REMINGTON MODEL 1888 It is thought that total production of this Model was slightly above 500. There is a transition number on the underside of the barrel & on top of the web which match. It was placed in these locations at the factory at the time they took the balance of the 1875's and converted them by cutting away a portion of the we & shortening the barrel. It was probably begun in 1887 after E. Remington & Sons went into bankruptcy and after Schyler, Hartley & Graham took over the Co. but before the new Co. under Remington Arms Co. was formed in 1890. I found an advertisement for this Model in an 1888 Hartley & Graham catalogue showing an 1875 and showing this model below it as a New Model Pocket Army. It has since been labelled the Model 1888 by collectors. This original nickel example is in very fine condition with approx. 90% remaining. The grips while original Remington wood grips are replacements to this gun. I do have a couple of original pairs of Ivory grips which could be added for an agreed upon extra. This Model has become very hard to locate in any kind of condition. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			FACTORY CONVERSION OF THE REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY This conversion started life as an original engraved cap & ball revolver with original Ivory grips. It was later converted at the factory & refinished. I believe that it was silver plated with a gold washed cylinder. It has had a tremendous amount of use since then & the finish is now just grey metal. The original engraving except for the cylinder has been freshened to give a pleasing appearance of how this beautiful old gun looked originally. It is truly indicative of an original work of art that has served well throughout the years. Seldom do we see an original engraved conversion. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			"SAMUEL B. LEWIS" INSPECTED CAVALRY COLT S.A.A. Records indicate that only 300 S.A.'s were inspected by this man and only 18 were recorded by Mr. John Kopec as of May 97 when he completed his examination of this the scarcest of all Cavalry Colt S.A.'s. In part Mr. Kopec says "In looking over this reolver it is my opinion that it is totally original in every respect. It is an outstanding example of a rare Lewis ordnance sub-inspected revolver. The remnant "SBL" cartouche on the left grip panel is particularly outstanding, as the survival rate of this grip marking is extremely low." He also supplied an appraisal at that time of $ 18,000.00. Copies of his letter and appraisal accompany this outstanding example. There is also a verbal history that this gun came from the estate of one of the pallbearers of Sheriff John Macdonald who served in Iowa. It was said that the pallbearer obtained it from John Macdonald's widow. While this has not yet been proven it is known that most of the Lewis inspected guns went to Iowa for use in the Militia. Further research could prove interesting and information on MacDonald is also included. A great rarity S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			INSCRIBED & ENGRAVED 1890 REMINGTON S.A. The inscription along the left side of the barrel near the end reads "Presented to Tom Horn by his friend John Coble". The Gun Report carried an article authored by the late Ron Ogan in which he indicates that he believed the inscription to be real. The overall gun is in excellent condition and has been professionally engraved in the "New York" style at some time after it's manufacture. None of the original blue finish remains however all markings are sharp & clear. The ivory grips show age and a beautiful patina with some age cracks showing on the bottom. I have several books written about Tom Horn and one mentions a white handled gun he was carrying. Dean Krakel the author of the book titled "The Saga of Tom Horn" told me that John Coble was like a father to Horn and such a gift would not surprise him. While all this is positive it still remains that no proof exists to confirm or discredit the inscription. This being the case one cannot justify a premium in the price of this arm and it is being offerred as an excellent example of a finely engraved and rare Remington.

			INSCRIBED "MADAM'S GUN' Insribed "Lilly Caldwell, Waco, TX" this pristine little revolver is the "Bulldog" model produced by "FOREHAND & WADSWORTH" and is so marked. This one is circa 1880's and was purchased from the "Gaines de Graffenreid" collection which was auctioned several years ago. It comes in a period casing which is relined along with an oil bottle & full box of appropriate for the period, original Remington cartridges.. S O L D Click here to ask us about this item.

			EARLY PERCUSSION REVOLVER SCOTTISH DEALER MARKED "CAMPBELL, GLASGOW" Another early percussion revolver which is not maker marked but dealer marked could with research turn out to be by a scottish maker. It is .36 cal., 5 shot, with a 4 3/4" barrel and is serial # 935 on the left frame. The grips are checkered walnut in near new condition but not as delicately checkered as the other examples we show above. There are also some engraved panels on the frame, TG and backstrap and butt plate, but none on the barrel. Unusual features which might help identify the maker are round cylinder stops, a removeable plate on the left side of the frame to gain access to the mechanism, a very unusual post type rammer retaining device. It is single action with a rammer of much smaller diameter than the chambers. The finish retains small amounts of dull blue but has mostly turned brown and grey.

			MARTIALLY MARKED 1860 COLT ARMY This exceptional example was manufactured in 1863 for use in the civil war. I do not think it saw a lot of service but was stored in its holster which is included for many years. The holster obviously took most of the wear and served to protect most areas with just the cylinder blue having flaked off leaving a slight brown patina but not having harmed the cylinder markings or the scene. The holster is an early version with the retaining strap having the straight stitching and no rivet to secure it as is seen on the later holsters. It also has the original makers cartouche on the flap but I cannot make out the name. The gun is in fine condition retaining well over 30%+blue finish and case colors. All the inspector marks are crisp and clear as are the address on the barrel, the patent markings etc. The army was .44 cal. and had an 8" barrel with blade type german silver sight. The brass trigger guard is very clean with few marks or dings. The grips also showlittle wear with the proper cartouche on each side. The serial number is 122,138 on all the proper locations and all matching. Double click the image for more pics. If you would like other pics or details please contact us.
