Description:

CIVIL WAR Antique ENFIELD P1853 Infantry Rifle Musket

Dated “1862” with Commercial Proofs!

Here we present an antique Enfield Commercial Pattern 1853 Rifle-Musket, made in 1862 in England. The Pattern 1853 is perhaps the best known and regarded weapon that replaced all earlier infantry models in the British Army. Over 500,000 Pattern 1853 muskets were also purchased/imported by the US Ordnance Department during the Civil War. They represented the second most issued infantry musket in the field and were beloved by their users.

The lock is marked with a British Royal Cipher and “1862/TOWER”. Commercial proof marks are located on the left side of the barrel. The initials “DM” are located just ahead of the butt plate.

The overall condition is good. The metal surfaces are dark with age with signs of hard use. The markings are clear and legible. The stock shows wear all about with a small repaired crack on the left side opposite the lock. The bore is dark with good rifling. The action on this rifle is strong.

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

Barrel is 39 inches.

Caliber: .577 Percussion
