Description:
Antique SPRINGFIELD Model 1816 Musket Conversion
Old Conversion to Percussion from Flintlock
Here we present an antique Springfield Model 1816 Musket, made at Springfield Armory in Massachusetts circa 1820. This musket started out as a flintlock before being updated to the percussion firing system, a more reliable format for that day’s combat weapons. This one has also had much of the forestock eliminated, either due to damage or simply because the user wanted a lighter, nimbler firearm.
This musket is marked simply “SPRINGFIELD” under a face down eagle head. The same eagle head is the only mark on the left side of the breech. The bayonet lug at the top of the muzzle would serve as a shotgun bead.
The overall condition is fair. The iron surfaces have a deep, dark patina. The markings are clear. The stock remains smooth and solid. The bore is smooth and caked in dust. The action is not currently functional and will not hold in the cocked position. Here is a neat old musket for over the mantle!
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 39 inches.
Caliber: .69 Percussion
