Reduced crack in lower trigger tang needs TIG weld.

Superb Remington model 1871 Army .50 calibre pistol
Here is another superb 1871 Remington Rolling Block Pistol in obsolete 50 calibre Remington centrefire and in the top 5% of quality attainable.

The rifle is basically untouched and unusually has the original browning extant on the b... read more
