Description:
CIVIL WAR HARPER’S FERRY U.S. MODEL 1816 PERCUSSION CONVERSION MUSKET W/BAYONET CIRCA LATE 1850’S. .69 cal. smoothbore 41 ½” barrel with “V/P/EAGLE HEAD” proofs. Stock with crisp “V/PN” conversion era Harper’s Ferry inspector’s stamp and proof. Large number of these converted at Harper’s Ferry for various States and particularly Southern States which it largely supplied in the years just before the Civil War. These were the muskets largely used by the regular State troops of Virginia and North Carolina at the outset of the war. Many photos of soldiers going off to war are known depicting these conversions. Excellent lock markings and nice metal with grey patina. Excellent stock patina with a very faint old script name nicely etched in the side panel just behind the side plate which is partially visible.(----ARD D. MAU---). Working order and excellent bore. Ramrod a correct aged modern replacement. Original bayonet in matching condition. Extra nice and highly sought after.
