Description:
   SOLD   Mass militia Marked contract musket with a 41/12" ong barrel of about .68 cal smooth bore with exterior metal as issued in the white with age staining but not rusted, looks like a Charlesville musket of the Rev.War with brass pan, and trumpet ram-rod. The action works well, and the front muzzle barrel band has a brass front blade sight, Overall it measures about almost 56:" long, and the stock is in very good condition and appears to be French Walnut? The flat on the side of the lock screws has a MS and a diamlond shaped proof of SF not anything I can identify. Often parts from differnt muskets left over from contracts were assembled by armories or gun makers and sold a militia muskets to the U.S. during and right after the Rev. War. The action works well, and there are no proofs on the barrel if a Eurpoean gun was exported out of Europe. Overal a clean unusual musket of early 1800's.When buying a gun always have it examined by a competent gunsmith  before  shooting. To buy a gun from me you must get a direct email for me, with details, and shipping cost.   We don’t have a web  site .I prefer money orders or a check.  Item ships when funds come in. I try to keep guns  affordable, which means I make less money than most dealers. You won’t get altitude sickness, or nose bleed, with my prices! I consistently have the best selection of  older guns If you attempt to buy,  you must still contact us for details . Best to email to buy. Sometimes a local person can stop buy and purchase before the gun is removed.  Sometimes not home to get calls. Some guns are required shipment to a gun dealer near you for a transfer to you when it arrives. Otherwise many older or black powder guns ship to your door. With the widest selection of older guns at great prices, We don’t have a store, and sell on the internet only.  I’m easy to get along with. Thank You
