Description:
CIVIL WAR Antique Starr CAVALRY Carbine
Great Percussion Saddle Ring Carbine
Here we present an antique Starr Arms Co. Saddle Ring Percussion Carbine, made circa 1863 in Yonkers, New York. This carbine borrows elements from its contemporaries in some ways, and 20,601 were ordered by the Union during the American Civil War. The style and function certainly reflect the more popular Sharps rifle and carbine. These carbines were known to have been issued, especially in the Western Theater, to the following units: 1st Arkansas, 5th Kansas, 11th Missouri, and 24th New York.
The top of the barrel and the right side of the lock are marked “STARR ARMS CO. YONKERS NY”. Behind the breech is marked “STARR’S PATENT/SEPT. 14 1858”. The left side of the barrel is marked with the U.S. government inspector initials “L.A.B.”, for Lt. Commander Lester A. Beardslee. Small, single-letter inspector marks throughout.
The overall condition is very good. The barrel bears an even, dark and heavy patina. The markings are clear and legible. The walnut stock is in good condition with a chip off the toe. The bore is in good condition with clear rifling and just a bit of pitting at the breech end. The action is strong.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 21 inches in length.
Caliber: .54
