I am looking at a Rollingblock in 45-70.
It is on consignment.
The gun is supposed to be restocked Remington Rolling BLock.
The barrel is Octogon at the breech and stock and transforms to a heavy round barrel. The bluing has some wear, the stock is a nice walnut, and at the end of the front stock there is a silver cap. it is a single trigger gun. The bore is pristine.
The barrel is marked 45-70 Creedmore. Is this a Remington marking?
I see no markings to indicate that it's one of the repros.
Any help, or opinions would be appreciated.
PS - weather this is an original gun from Remington parts, or a repro or a compilation I feel it is a very good fit, attractive and worth the asking price. This is not finding fault with any aspects, and I will probably spring even if it a full of partial repro. I do want to know what it really is.
