THR Remington 1858 Club

[napp]

Can I play? 1858 Remington New Army, Pietta, case hardened, checkered grips. Proof marked in 2009 [CD].

 

[Jaymo]

napp, nice to see more Georgians here. Are you native, or transplanted?

Mizar, what size Opinel is that? I have 2 Opinels and love them. I don't think you can get as good a knife for the price, except for a Mora.

I have 2 NMA, a 5.5" and an 8". .44 cal, of course. I'd like to have the .36 NMN and the .31 pocket.
Once I find the camera I'll take and post pics. Until then, my membership will just have to be "pending".

 

[napp]

Jaymo...Technically, I am a transplant; but I've lived almost half my life in Georgia.

Here's my stock photo of my old friend. You'll have to use the Flickr link, though.

Can I join?

[Jaymo]

Berkley, nice grips on that NA. Where can I get a set?

napp, nice case hardened NA. Mine are both blue.

 

[Jaymo]

kwhi43, nice grips. Are they maple?

Berkley, nice grips. Where can I get a set like that?

napp, nice case hardened NA. Mine are both blue. Completely run-of-the-mill. But I like them. So, where'd ye move here from?

Hasty image, but -





I am very pleased with this Revolver. It is a joy to Shoot, accurate, smooth Action, comfortable in the Hand, and easy to clean.

Appears to me some sort of Magnetic 'Stainless'...it is a Uberti...and has wonderful Walnut Stocks also.

Wow... I get some sleep and look what happened!

Gentlemen, thank you for showing your support – some great looking guns there. No way to rate them really, but personally I’m currently torn between kwhi43’s beautiful custom navy and BHP FAN’s stainless/polished army. Oh, and Berkley’s cased NMA with those grips….. Keep ‘em coming!

 

[Berkley]

Thanks for all the kind words. That cased conversion was an early birthday present to myself . The grips are from N.C. Ordnance.

Here is a shot of my Remington with a few of it's friends. May I join? FYI there is a forum for Remington revolvers on the CAS website that I find interesting and helpful http://www.cascity.com/forumhall/index.php/board,55.0.html

 

[missuramoss]

Nice lookin weapons ya'll have! I have 2, a Santa Barbara, and Pietta target model....But its been so long since I posted...I cant figure out how to get the pic up.

 

[ojh]

[txgunsuscg]

Does this count as a real Remington ??? Brass frame 12" barrel, shoots great and gets attention like no other.

 

[Shoot The Moon]

Missuramoss -you can either add an attachment (use the little 'paperclip' icon in the reply editor) or you can link to an online image site like photobucket - in which case you paste the URL for the photo using the little 'landscape' icon. Let me know if you still have problems...... you're signed up so long as you promise to post those photos!

 

[BConklin]

Hey I got some of them things too...

a .36 caliber in the foreground - and two .44's

Jeepers - I should have wiped them down! That 36 is so lousy with fingerprints it almost looks case hardened

I'd say that counts as a Remington and a half! What load do you use with that long barrel?

 

[Shoot The Moon]

They're all great looking guns - but.... BConklin, that carbine is just beeeeeaaauutiful..... the trigger guard is a work of art.

 

[ClemBert]

Sign me up!

 

[Shoot The Moon]

ClemBert, welcome. Not only are those Remmies making me jealous, the quality of your photos are something to aspire to as well! Glad to have you along!

Oh and congratulations.... you made us the quarter century! 25 members after 24 hours......

 

[missuramoss]

Here they are..Thanks for the info shoot the moon.

 

[WALKERs210]

I'd say that counts as a Remington and a half! What load do you use with that long barrel?

Started out with a .451 RB, prelubed wonder wad, with 25 g 3F bp. Last outing was using a .457 RB, Wonder wad, and 30g 3F bp. It hits where you aim and for me that is a testament to the gun not my shaky hands and wore out eyes.

 

[Hellgate]

Don't know how to upload photos but my avatar on othere boards is of me shooting one of my Ubertis. Have a total of 9 Remingtons (2 Navy Euros, 5 Euro 44s, & 2 Uberti 44 Milleniums). Used to own 3 Pietta SS NMA 44s. I think I qualify.
