Antique Asa Waters US Model 1836 Flint Lock Pistol
Description: Antique ASA WATERS US Model 1836 .54 Caliber Smoothbore FLINTLOCK Pistol Here we present an antique A.H. Waters U.S. Model 1836 Flintlock Pistol, .54 Caliber made in 1838. There were actually two manufacturers of these guns: Asa Waters and Robert Johnson. Combined, the production totals 41,000 guns. This was the last U.S. Martial pistol to use the flintlock system, and many consider this the best of all U.S. flint guns due to its craftsmanship and aesthetic appeal. The gun is historically significant as this was the primary issue pistol during the Mexican American War (1846-1848), and was even significantly used during the American Civil War (1861-1865), especially in the percussion converted format. The lock plate is roll-stamped with an eagle head above "A. WATERS/MILBURY. MS./1837" in three lines. Two cartouches are located on the left stock flat. Many of these were lost to attrition during the various conflicts listed above, and many were converted to percussion for use by the North & South during the Civil War. Here is a true survivor in its original flintlock state. The overall condition is very good. The action is strong. The bore is in good shape. The stock in in great condition. A very nice, attic condition Model 1836 made in 1837! Own the original! Barrel is 8-1/2 inches. STANDARD ISSUE of the MEXICAN-AMERICAN WAR! Actual shipping cost SOLD Antique: Yes |
