Saddle Ring Percussion Carbine, made circa 1863 in Yonkers, New York. This carbine borrows elements from its contemporaries in some ways, and 20,601 were ordered by the Union during the American Civil War. The style and function certainly reflect the more popular Sharps rifle and carbine. These carbines were known to have been issued, especially in the Western Theater, to the following units: 1st Arkansas, 5th Kansas, 11th Missouri, and 24th New York. The top of the barrel and the right side of the lock are marked “STARR ARMS CO. YONKERS NY”. Behind the breech is marked “STARR’S PATENT/SEPT. 14 1858”. The left side of the barrel is marked with the U.S. Government Inspector initials “L.A.B.”, for Lt. Commander Lester A. Beardslee. Small, single-letter inspector marks throughout. The overall condition is good. The action is strong. The bore is bright with nice rifling. The yellowish color that you see on the metal parts is a preservative and can be removed. Short, stable split at the toe of the butt stock. A solid and classic Civil War carbine that can supplement any collection! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 21 inches in length. Caliber: .54 Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail!
