Description:
FRANK WESSON 44 RIMFIRE....24" BARREL...
This is a Frank Wesson single-shot breechloader in excellent condition. This 1st Type, twin-trigger, .44 caliber rimfire, Wesson rifle made circa 1859 to 1864, is one of the estimated 2,000 Type 1 units produced at Worcester, Massachusetts.
This tip-up F. Wesson rifle, though not a military purchase, is an extremely fine rifle specimen. The weapon, often referred to as a carbine, measures 39” long overall and weighs 6 pounds. The octagonal rifled barrel is 24” long. There is some light brown patina, some speckling and light pitting. Overall is in excellent condition. The rounded iron receiver / frame and the forend are forged integrally. Short wooden forend stock. Rifle retains its original vertical slotted link (guide) at the right rear of barrel as well as its German-silver, mounted-blade front sight. Top of barrel flat marked “FRANK WESSON WORCESTOR MASS. / PATENTED OCT 25, 1859 & NOV 11, 1862.” Bore is excellent. Original two-leaf rear sight.
Barrel breech has a slight relief or recess at each side to accommodate the removal of the metallic rim cartridge. Rifle has its original sling swivel mount in the stock.
