Brazos John Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 I have a pair of '58 Remington cap and ball revolvers in 44 cal. One is by Uberti. The other is, well, it's NOT Uberti. It has stamps and proof marks, but none that say Pietta. How can I tell if it's a Pietta? I remember seeing an article a while back identifying Piettas, but I couldn't find it. Thanks for your help. Brazos
H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 Well, my Pietta Remington clearly has Pietta stamped on it. Mine is fairly new, had it for only a few weeks. Don't know if they have always stamped them this way or not. What markings ARE on it?

Brazos John Posted December 5, 2018 Author Posted December 5, 2018 Thanks, Sedalia Dave and Prairie Dawg. These are the articles I was looking for. I'm wanting to get some Slix nipples for them, and my Uberti and Pietta need different sizes. Thanks again, Brazos
Boomstick Bruce Posted December 5, 2018 Posted December 5, 2018 Everything you need to know about the 58 Remingtons http://1858remington.com/discuss/index.php Is there two letters in a rectangle on the frame somewhere? Maybe two X's and a number? That would identify the year it was made
