[QUOTE="BuckWild, post: 3191572, member: 217"] Verified this morning that they are Remington Model 1 Rolling Block New York State Militia model chambered in .50-70 Govt. Guess I need to start looking for brass. I totally disassembled one of them this morning and it would appear that they were never blued. The barrel under the forearm was shiny bright as was the barrel under the rear sight. Had to lightly sand down the wood to get the mildew funk off it. I'm gonna rub in some boiled linseed oil on the wood and then hit it with some quad 0 steel wool. The bore looks great and there is very little lead buildup. Barrel looks great on the inside as well.
