WHAT DO I HAVE?

I have been shooting bp for quite a while now and just got lucky at a garage sale and found this "CVA 1858 REMINGTON ARMY" unfinished revolver. I have to put a little cash in on it but no big deal. I only paid 40.00 for it.

Now for the questions: After doing a little looking around for the needed parts, I keep seeing a bunch of names that seem to be the same gun... i.e... 1858 Traditional, Remington 1858, and a bunch more. Can you guys tell me what other names that goes to it! Oh NEW ARMY, that was another one.

I didn't get the owners manual with it so can someone tell me where I can find it online and what the max load is?

Can these guns shoot Sabots or are they stuck with ball???

And for the last question, I have to get new nipples for it, Planning on using the #11's Will any nipple work or do I have to look for a spacific one?

Thanks guys! AHHH I cant figure out how to upload a pic.
