    Serial numbers on my rem. 1858?

    Nice dude thanks. I got no papers like that on mine. Are the bullets 451-454 or 457 on that one? Seems like the darker one got 457 and the silver one got 457 but i could shoot with 454 so i tried it.

    Serial numbers on my rem. 1858?

    Okay btw i found out what you mean by "cartouche stamp" i checked it up! No need to show. Mine didn't get these but i'm not sure if the grips on mine are original or not. I actually wonder about a thing. On the silver one i got 2 letters. One is in front of the cylinder back on the barrel...

    Serial numbers on my rem. 1858?

    Serial numbers on my rem. 1858?

    Hey guys! I just got my second original remington 1858. Not sure if i might keep or sell it since they're too expensive really for keeping a few of them. But i wonder about the serial numbers on them. The one i got yesterday got the numbers 48686 on the barrel. The one i had for a while got...

    Loads in a original rem 1858

    Got ya man! I will text to the guy who i got my remington from and ask him what can be done about that spring! Probably he might know since he imports them from US i think and sells them here. He might have some expirience about fixing the stuff as well i guess! Haha man i'm kinda jealous you...

    Loads in a original rem 1858

    If this is what you mean then yeah man they both got it. The one i already have got it and the one i will get probably next week got them as well. Got any ideas on how i could fix mine? I mean it works still etc it's hard to notice but i want it to be as it is supposed to be. And i'm not sure...

    Loads in a original rem 1858

    You are right man. I checked a text document i got from the seller. I will send a screen shot as well but since it's in swedish i will send the translation entire text with google translate. And it's not the remington i have now that you guys have seen... i'm waiting for another one to arrive...

    Loads in a original rem 1858

    Oooh got ya man! I will send a picture of what i mean. I think the spring on the hand assembly doesn't push it forward enough for always getting a good grip on the cylinder. Well it's working still but i guess it should push the hand assembly forward to rotate the cylinder more then it does. And...

    Loads in a original rem 1858

    Got ya! Yeah i found out the other one i'm getting were produced in 1863 if i remember it right. I had a starr but it wouldn't work as it should so i changed to another rem of the same model. 1858 i'm waiting for the guy to post it. I read a document he sent me i think it said they produced that...

    Loads in a original rem 1858

    https://mustpuru.eu/en/pood/spare-parts/hand-assembly-remington-1858-uberti/ I should be able ordering this one i think it might work on a original rem. 1858 as well is my guess? so i will check it out later! If i can't bend it more not sure i just don't want to break it. Anyone knows if that...

    Loads in a original rem 1858

    I took it apart and bent the spring a bit and put it together again! Not much tho since i'm scared to break it. Maybe i should change to one for a uberti instead of bending. I will see if it gets any better. Maybe the spring pushes forward the thing that is supposed to rotate the cylinder better...
