I am buying this from my best friend for 20+ years, told me to pay him when I can.



I have shot it, but with him, i need to get the balls for it

sorry for the mess, forgot to clean up from an project I was doing, a few minutes earlier

If thats a mess it is organized and disguised. You have a good friend, enjoy shooting it. I need to buy a new one of those. I just sold mine a month or so ago. I got it for Christmas in 97 and it had a brass frame.

My mess can beat your mess any day of the week.

Nice gun!

Is that a spare cylinder sitting there behind the pistol? I need to get one for mine. I love shooting mine but I hate to clean it. I've been meaning to try it with some Jim Shockey's gold to see if it makes the cleaning process any easier.

Very nice looking revolver. I have one of the same model revolvers. Get some JSG 3f and load 20 grains and a roundball. They are great shooters and a lot of fun to shoot.

Very nice Corey. Have fun shooting it.

I always wanted one of those but I think it would be too much trouble loading and cleaning for the amount of shooting. They are still way cool to own though.
Don't forget to fill the cylinders with grease after you load it all up. We don't want you to blow your new gun or your hand up.

I have that exact same one. It's a fun shooter. Back when I used to shoot at public ranges, it only took me going through 1 cylinder and I'd have a group of people around me wanting to shoot it. :s4:

Welcome to the Remington revolver club Corey.
I've been loading ~30 grains of APP 3F, and keep the cylinder pin well lubed with mineral oil while shooting.
I don't use grease over the balls with the APP, but use homemade over powder cards that are punched out from juice cartons.
