This Remington product was eventually late to the game by some two full years as the Colt Peacemaker had already found favor with the US Government through Army-bound contracts. Thusly, the Model 1875 saw production totals reach only around 25,000 to 30,000 units from a manufacturing period stemming from 1875 into 1889. Some 10,000 guns were ordered by the Egyptian government but the order was hampered by unpaid debts and few of the committed amount were actually delivered.
