This came in today.. purdy. Leech and Rigdon, Cimarron

Had never heard of these till recently, found on GB, bid on it and got it for less than expected. Appears to be the more rare model than current offering, Uberti Leech and Rigdon with charcoal blue and CSA flag on grip panel.

You guys know what it is, its pre owned unfired, probably remain so.

SHOOT IT!

Looks nice.

BPnut@.50cal · Apr 24, 2024

Was just reading the blurb sheet on this and it claims that the grip flag is cast of pure silver! Too bad silver is never worth much!

That is a handsome piece. If it were mine I wouldn’t hesitate to take it to the range.

What is the date stamp?

Not sure, there is a C by the SN at frame and barrel joint, and what looks like a couple of proof marks, barely legible.

Under the ram rod there is a couple of marks that only got half stamped and are not legible. That is all the markings I can find.

Here is the C by the SN and under the barrel what I thought was a bad stamp may be the barrel code, looks like CP, dont now when that would be.

BPnut@.50cal · Apr 24, 2024

If CP is correct, this says 2016. Does that sound right?

The C is an imperfectly stamped date code. The second letter only shows the top and in my opinion could be an F, T or Z. ( I’ll go with Z.) If it’s important to know maybe Cimarron can tell you? The marks on the barrel are also imperfectly stamped. As others frequently point out on the forum “PN” is the abbreviation for “Polvero Nero” or Black Powder in Italiano. More precisely it would be literally translated “Powder Black.” But I’m just trying to show off my rusty Italian.

BPnut@.50cal · Apr 25, 2024

I will ask Cimarron.

BPnut@.50cal · Apr 25, 2024

From Cimarron.

'Your firearm was a special run of Firearms that we call the Blue and the Grey. We have since stopped making the black powder firearms in that series.

Your serial number was manufactured in 2018 and sold in 2019. Please enjoy your firearm.'

kh54 · Apr 25, 2024

That was nice of Cimarron to respond.
