Offered as late as 1882, this .58-caliber Berdan centerfire was one of the early ventures of Rolling Block. Remington action was fitted to surplus .58-caliber muzzle-loading Springfield parts that were transformed into a breechloader. Though an obsolete, low-powered, short-range number, it still remained popular. However, it is believed Remington had large numbers on hand and kept them in the catalog hoping certain customers would eventually buy them out. There were two models: Short Transformed, with 36" barrel and two spring-held barrel bands; Long Transformed, with three barrel bands and 39" barrel. The former is the scarcer of the two and 30% should be added to the below-listed prices for the Long Transformed variant. The Dominican Republic was one of the last recorded customers purchasing a quantity as late as 1888. Both versions are scarce.
