Here we present an antique Model 1816 Musket by Nathan Starr, made circa 1834 in Middletown, Connecticut. This musket would have started out life as a flintlock prior to being updated to the newer, more reliable percussion firing system circa the 1840s through about 1860. The Model 1816 musket was one of the most prolific firearms in the pre-Civil War United States. Over 675,000 were manufactured at the national armories and thousands more were manufactured by private contractors. Many of these muskets were converted to percussion, as was this one, and saw use into the Civil War era. Nathan Starr Jr. manufactured 15,530 Model 1816s in 1829-1840 in Middletown, Connecticut. This musket’s lock features the starburst trademark of Nathan Starr above his name with “US” on either side. The tail of the lock is dated 1834 and marked for its place of manufacture, Middletown, Connecticut. Government inspector markings can be found throughout. This one comes with the bayonet. The overall condition is very good. The bore is untouched, smooth with a decades old layer of dust. The action is excellent. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
