Manufactured from 1866 to 1879, with total quantity estimated at less than 1000, these revolving rifles were built on the frame of the New Model revolver series. These rifles had a slightly longer cylinder and a longer loading lever. The top barrel flat is marked "PATENTED SEPT. 14, 1858 / E. REMINGTON & SONS, ILION, NEW YORK, U.S.A. / NEW-MODEL" ahead of the rear sight and the serial number is marked on the bottom barrel flat, on the left side of the upper tang under the stock and on the upper tang cutout of the stock. Dovetailed blade front and folding leaf rear sights, casehardened frame and loading lever with the remaining surfaces blue. Fitted with the correct iron scroll type trigger guard with spur and iron crescent buttplate on a straight grip stock. Most specimens encountered have brass mountings, making this example even rarer.
