Eliphalet Remington III Signed Check - Gun Maker - Autograph Check - Autographs For Sale

Eliphalet Remington III signed Check. In 1839 Eliphalet was joined by his oldest son, Philo Remington (to make the business \"E. Remington & Son\"); in 1845, his second son, Samuel, also joined the company, afterward called \"E. Remington & Sons\". Remington\'s third son, Eliphalet III, would later join the company as well. During this period, the Remingtons specialized almost exclusively in manufacturing rifle barrels. These barrels, marked with the distinctive \"REMINGTON\" stamp near their breeches, were recognized for their quality and reasonable price. Many, if not most, of the independent gunsmiths in the Mohawk Valley purchased completed (but not rifled) barrels from Remington and assembled them into firearms custom ordered by their customers. As demand increased, the Remingtons added other parts to their inventory, first percussion locks made in Birmingham, England but marked with their stamp \"REMINGTON\", and later sets of brass gun furniture, including trigger guards, butt plates, and patch boxes. After 1846, martial longarm and then revolver production dominated the company\'s workforce. Read more at Item ordered may not be exact piece shown. All original and authentic.
