When I tried to communicate with him I received an email from his daughter informing me that he had passed away.
Re: Roger Phillips
Roger was one of several RSA members who conducted ongoing research on Remington big bore revolvers which included conversions and single actions. Roger's expertise on percussion/cartridge conversion revolvers was recognized across the Remington collecting fraternity. His book on the subject has become the standard reference. At this time I don't know or anyone who is actively researching the subject with intent to publish. Don Ware was also a accomplished researcher on Civil War and single action Remington revolvers. His book is also invaluable. The quarterly Journal of the Remington Society routinely has articles on these revolvers.
