Description:
COLT .58 PRECUSSION RIFLE ,ALL ORIGINAL 1862 LOCK DATE, NICE BORE AND COMES WITH CLEANING ROD.
Colt Model 1861 Special Muskets were produced throughtout the Civil War period. Colt contracts with Federal and state governments resulted in the manufacture of approximately 100,000 muskets. These arms had some features common to the British Enfield rifle-muskets that were widely imported during the War. Among these were the S-shaped hammer (later adopted for the U.S. Model 1863 Rifle-Musket), and the use of screws rather than springs to secure the barrel bands. The general shape of the stock, the .58 caliber bore, and the short-base three-leaf rear sight were all similar to those of the U.S. Model 1861 Rifle-Musket.
