SCARCE CIVIL WAR Antique U.S. JOSLYN Model 1864 .52 Rimfire CALVARY Carbine
Scarce Saddle Ring Carbine for UNION CAVALRY REGIMENTS
Here we present an antique U.S. Joslyn Model 1864 Civil War Cavalry Carbine, made circa 1864 in Stonington, Connecticut. Benjamin Franklin Joslyn was the inventor, holding over 25 firearms patents. 8,000 of these carbines were purchased by the Union during the American Civil War, and they all saw service, being heavily allocated to cavalry regiments such as the 4th and 8th Indiana, 19th New York, 13th Tennessee, 9th Pennsylvania, 3rd West Virginia, 2nd Wisconsin, 1st Nebraska, 1st Nevada and 11th Ohio. As a result of his success with the carbine, the federal government ordered 3,000 of his breech-loading actions in order to build up the U.S. National Armory with breech-loading rifles. These were made for the proprietary cartridge called the 50-60-450 Joslyn Rimfire. These pre-dates the Allin conversion and some of these 3,000 rifles are suspected to have been issued and used just before the end of the American Civil War.
The overall condition is near fine. Very nice metal finish. Some visible case colors. The action is excellent. The bore is in very good condition with strong rifling. The walnut stock is dark and solid. The numbers on the breech block and the receiver tang do not match.
