RARE Antique SIMEON NORTH Model 1833 Hall Carbine
Breech Loading Carbine with Sliding Bayonet
Here we present an antique Simeon North U.S. Contract Model 1833 Hall Breech Loading percussion carbine with a sliding bayonet made in 1838 in Middleton, Connecticut. The Model 1833 is historically significant as the first percussion firearm adopted by the U.S. Government and also the first U.S. martial arm to employ an under-barrel bayonet that slides into the ramrod channel. 1,028 were manufactured in .58 caliber in 1834, and 6,135 were manufactured in .52 caliber in 1836-1839. These were issued to the 2nd US Dragoons and there were even 100 ordered by the state of Alabama for a special Mobile city militia unit. The Model 1833 was primarily used in conflicts with Native Americans in the Arkansas Territory and Florida, in the Mexican-American War, and they remained in use during the Civil War.
This rifle is marked “U.S./S. North/MIDLtn/CONN./1838”. “NWP” is the inspector marking for Nahum W. Patch, whose initials appear on the barrel and the left side of the stock.
The overall condition is good condition. The iron parts have a smooth, dark patina. The markings are legible. The walnut stock has period repairs to where it meets the frame on the top and a repair to the thin part of the stock under the section where the barrel meets the breech block. The bore is smooth and in very good shape. The action is excellent.
