The Remington Arms Company has a letter from George Armstrong Custer extolling the virtues of his Remington Rolling Block Sporting Rifle. In fact legend has it that Custer was carrying his faithful Rolling Block at Little Big Horn. The Rolling Block was produced as a military full-stock musket target rifle buffalo gun and even as a shotgun. The small-framed version was the New Model N4 and Uberti has used its inspiration for a 22 barrelled carbine and the 26 barrelled rifle.
