z Sold Conversion of a 1858 Navy Arms Remington

1858 Remington conversion. A loading port has been cut in the frame and converts this '58 Remington for the Kirst cartridge conversion without loading gate. The ejector assembly has been added to complete this conversion, just as Remington did in the old days. The .36 caliber percussion revolver barrel has a bore diameter of .375 inches. Today .38 caliber bullets are .357-inch diameter bullets. To attain best accuracy with a .38 caliber cartridge, you must shoot a soft lead hollow base bullet. You may choose to shoot a .38 special full wadcutter which is a hollow base. This ammo is available at most good gun shops. The soft lead hollow base bullet will "bump up” to the .375-inch bore diameter and shoot very accurately. This gun has been antiqued to give it a old look, but it functions as new. Locks up tight and the bore is shinny bright.
When ship assembled as you see it here this gun will have to go to a FFL Dealer.
