1842 Dated Antique U.S. SPRINGFIELD ARMORY M1840 Flintlock MUSKET w/BAYONET
Musket Used by Both CONFEDERATE & UNION
Here we present an antique Springfield Armory U.S. Model 1840 Flintlock Musket, manufactured circa 1842 in Springfield, Massachusetts. This .69 caliber musket originally would have had a flintlock firing system and a 42-inch barrel before being converted to percussion, possibly before it ever left the factory, and then reconverted back to flintlock sometime thereafter. Examples of this model are scarce as these were on the cusp of the percussion era. There were 30,421 muskets produced by the Springfield Armory and two independent contractors, D. Nippes and L. Pomeroy, between 1840 and 1846. Of this number, 26,841 were converted to percussion starting in 1849.
The overall condition is very good. Very nicely reconverted to flintlock. The action is excellent. The bore is smooth and dark. The stock is solid, showing a faint cartouche on the left stock flat. A really nice piece!
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 42 inches.
Caliber: .69 Percussion
