.50RF caliber, 7" barrel, no S/N. Blued and color case hardened finish, brass triggerguard. Walnut grip and forend. Right side of frame marked in two lines: REMINGTONS ILION N.Y. U.S.A. / MAY 3D NOV 15TH, 1864 APRIL 17TH 1866. Right of frame with naval P / F.C.W. sub-inspection mark. Top of barrel with additional US Navy inspection mark I / W.D.W. / {ANCHOR} and left side of grip with script FCW cartouche. Spur trigger, added brass triggerguard. This is very rare transitional example of the US Model 1867 Remington rolling block pistol. These guns were originally produced in .50RF with a spur trigger as the Model 1865, with estimated production at about 6,500 pieces. Circa 1867 most M1865 pistols were modified by shortening the barrels 1.5" from 8.5" to 7", the addition of a triggerguard, and by altering them from .50RF to .50CF. This gun has the shorter barrel and added triggerguard, but remains in its original rimfire configuration, making it a rare variant of the US Navy rolling block pistol.
