Description:
NSN, .58 caliber, 33" barrel with an excellent, bright bore. This well-made percussion rifle has about 90% of the original blue remaining on the barrel which blends smoothly into a freckled plum-brown patina mixing with gray on the balance. The lock plate too has some plum-brown freckling which carries over onto the hammer but the fairly bright original color case-hardening is still visible underneath. The lock and breech markings are still crisp and clear. The brass fixtures are in very good shape and have an overall dark brown - ochre patina with scattered small marks and blemishes. The walnut stock has an excellent original oil finish with small handling marks and surface bruises scattered about. The cartouches are crisp and clear on the left side of the stock and a correct iron ramrod is included. This is a fine example of a "Zouave Rifle" and would make a great addition to any collection.
