Taylor/Uberti 1858 Remington Case Hardened & Charcoal Blue .44 Caliber 5.5" Barrel 6 Rounds
The 1858 Remington became so famous that it was the prevailing choice of military officers following the Civil War. Its full-frame design still makes it a top choice for black powder shooters today as the cylinder can be removed without taking the firearm completely apart, unlike the Colt models. This steel remington features a steel case hardened frame, charcoal blue parts, brass triggerguard, octagonal barrel, dovetail front blade sight, and walnut two-piece grips.
