The Remington Arms Company began production of 1858 New Army single-action revolvers, and 5 years later the revolver had gained a foothold.

In the years following the Civil War, the black powder firearms maker also manufactured a carbine version of the 1859 New Army, called the 1858 Target Carbine, in smaller numbers.

The 1858 New Army Revolver Carbine features a blued frame and a brass trigger guard and buttplate.  Barrel is 18 inches in length and is .44 caliber.   1858 cylinders are precisely machined for clean, precise nipple recesses and cylinder nothces.
