Remington ~ Type II ~ .56-50 Spencer

Offered for sale is a historic Remington Rolling Block Type II rifle chambered in .56-50 Spencer, a classic post-Civil War military cartridge. Built on Remington's rugged and reliable rolling block action, this single-shot rifle represents one of the most widely used military systems of the late 19th century. This example retains its full-length military configuration with walnut stock, iron furniture, and saddle ring. The metal shows an even, aged patina, while the wood exhibits honest service wear consistent with its age. Remington Type II rolling blocks in this configuration were produced in the late 1860s to early 1870s, often for military contracts and conversions following the Civil War. The absence of a serial number is typical for certain contract pieces of the period. A solid collector piece with strong frontier and military appeal
