ANTIQUE Danzig M1809 Percussion Infantry Musket

Prussian Musket Dated “1820”

Here we present an antique Danzig Model 1809 Percussion Musket, manufactured by the Danzig Arsenal in 1820. Danzig is presently a city in Poland but was an important region in Prussia at the time this musket was made. The Model 1809 was originally made in the flintlock format, with later production shifting to the more modern and reliable percussion firing system.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 lock is marked “CROWN/DANZIG/1820”. The top of the barrel is marked “1820”. Original arsenal & acceptance markings remain throughout.

The overall condition is good. The metal surfaces are dark with age. The markings are clear and legible. The bore is smooth and dark. The stock is in good shape. The action on this musket is strong.

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.

Barrel is 41-1/4 inches.
