F.LLipietta Engraved Colt 1851 Navy Stainless

Great Gun and Rems. Has anyone got any info on a Reb Remington made by Richmond Arms during the war, or was some reinactor on some pipe dream. He says it belonged to his great great grandfather who rode in the Hampton Legions and he still fires it. But he Never brought it to store-- We never saw it?
 
There was no 'Reb Remington' made during the war. There was however the brass framed Spiller and Burr, and spur trigger Cofer revolver. Both were brass framed and resembled the Remington
 
Etched, engraved, stainless or in the white. Those are purdy little hand cannons.

I'm going to have to go back to work in a few weeks so I can get off of gun re-hab and buy another.
 
been wanting one of those for awhile now, i like how my 51"s fits my hand, got 2 of them. both are steel framed, one of them is nickel plated that i got a few years back for a song:D.
fingers, thanks... now i'm wanting one of those sheriff models like yours....guess i need to start dropping hints to the wife, fathers day is coming up:D
 
I was away from home when I posted yesterday & didn't have any of my books handy. I didn't remember where the Cofer revolver was made. They were made in Portsmouth VA. There were some 80 or so of the Cofers bought by the 5th Virginia Cavalry, so.......

The Cofer looks a lot like the '58 Remmie; only it has a spur trigger like the .31 cal Remmie pocket pistols
