This video delves into the Remington U.S. Army Model 1871 Rolling Block Pistol, a less common firearm from the Old West. The presenters highlight its robust rolling block action, similar to Remington's rifles, and its .50 Centerfire (.50 CF) caliber, capable of delivering significant stopping power. They discuss its issuance in the 1880s despite the availability of the Colt Single Action Army, citing its cost-effectiveness, durability, ease of maintenance, and simplified training. The specific example featured is in excellent 'as issued' condition, showcasing original bluing, case-hardened receiver, and crisp markings. The video also notes that the .50 CF cartridge is still reloadable, making the pistol shootable.
