CIVIL WAR Antique STARR ARMS Co. Model 1858 PERCUSSION Saddle Ring Carbine
Breech Loading Percussion CAVALRY CARBINE
Here we present an antique Starr Arms Co. Model 1858 Saddle Ring Percussion Carbine, made circa 1862-65 in Yonkers, New York. The Starr carbine was a breechloading single-shot rifle used by the United States Army. Designed in 1858, the Starr was primarily used by cavalry soldiers in the American Civil War. The Starr Arms Co. manufactured 20,601 of these breechloading percussion carbines between 1862 and 1865. Though most Starr carbines were issued to Federal cavalry units during the American Civil War, they were also known to be in the hands of Confederate Soldiers. 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.
Overall, Eben T. Starr’s firearm designs made him quite successful during the Civil War, having provided the 3rd most .44 caliber revolvers and the 5th most carbines for the Union.
The overall condition is very good. Dark, even patina. The action is excellent. The bore is bright and clean with sharp rifling. The stock has been modestly refinished and remains solid and smooth.
