Antique BARNETT COMMERCIAL Pattern ARTILLERY Rifled Carbine LONDON
Civil War Period Handy Rifle, Very Clean
Here we present an antique Civil War-era Commercial Pattern Enfield Artillery Percussion Rifled Carbine, made by Barnett in London, England, circa 1861. During the course of the American Civil War, Barnett delivered thousands of Pattern 1853 “Enfield” rifle muskets, as well as Pattern 1853 Artillery and Pattern 1856 Cavalry carbines to the Confederacy.
The Pattern 1853 was Britain’s adopted rifle from 1853 until the Snider system was adopted to transform arms into breech-loaders. In addition to its use around the world with the British military, this was one of the most popular arms for the infantry during the American Civil War. The Pattern 1853 rifle-musket was used by both the North and the South in the American Civil War and was the second most widely used infantry weapon in the war, surpassed only by the Springfield Model 1861 Rifled Musket. The Confederates imported more Enfields during the course of the war than any other small arm, buying from private contractors and gun runners. It has been estimated that over 900,000 P53 Enfields were imported into America and saw service in every major engagement of the war.
The overall condition is fine. Original finish. The action is excellent. The bore is bright with sharp rifling. The ramrod is a replacement. London commercial proofs. The stock is smooth and solid, still showing inspection marks behind the trigger guard tang.
