Antique ROBERT JOHNSON U.S. Model 1836 .54 Cal. Smoothbore FLINTLOCK Pistol
STANDARD ISSUE of the MEXICAN-AMERICAN WAR!
Here we present an antique Robert Johnson Model 1836 Flintlock Pistol dated 1838 made in Middletown, Connecticut. This .54 caliber, smoothbore, flintlock pistol is one of approximately 18,000 Model 1836 pistols manufactured by Robert Johnson of Middletown, Connecticut. The Model 1836 was widely considered to be the best designed and manufactured flintlock pistol. The pistol has an 8 1/2 inch round barrel with a brass front sight blade, swivel ramrod with button head and iron mountings. The barrel, ramrod, butt cap, barrel band and trigger guard are "bright" finish. The lock plate, hammer, and tang were once casehardened. The lock is marked "US / JOHNSON / MIDDN.CONN. / 1838" below the brass pan. The left stock flat is marked with a faint cartouche. The Model 1836 Flintlock Pistol was the standard issue handgun of the Mexican War.
The overall condition is good. Worn and weathered exterior. The action is excellent. The cock was replaced at some point. The bore is smooth and aged. The walnut stock has a stable crack at the rear lock screw head and under the barrel band. There is a shadow of a cartouche on the left stock flat.
