Description:
PRUSSIAN Antique Model 1809 Musket Made in Neisse
Percussion Infantry Musket
Here we present a Percussion Shotgun Conversion Antique Prussian Model 1809 Musket, manufactured circa 1826 at the Prussian Armory at Neisse. The Model 1809 was originally made in the flintlock format, with later production shifting to the more modern and reliable percussion firing system. This musket would have been used in Prussian conflicts during the 1840s and 50s, including the Egyptian-Ottoman War, the Greater Poland Uprising, the Revolutions of 1848, and the First Schleswig War, before being sold to the United States government in the first years of the American Civil War. Though thoroughly obsolete, both the Union and the Confederacy were desperate for small arms as the South had little capability to make their own and the North had to scramble to ramp up their own production.
The left side of the barrel is marked “1826/CROWN/FW/N/P”. The lock is marked “NEISSE/1826”. The butt plate tang bears faint unit markings.
The overall condition is fair. The metal surfaces are dark with age. The markings are legible. The bore is dark. The stock has been shortened and repaired at the stock. The action on this musket is strong.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 33 inches.
Caliber: .73
