Description:
NSN, .54 cal., 8 1/2" barrel with a good bore that has some areas of light-moderate pitting along its length. The barrel and ramrod assembly have an overall mottled gray-brown patina with moderate pitting along the entire length, heaviest at the breech near and on the nipple bolster. The lock has a bluish gray patina, while the hammer has a darker brown color overall. The brass furniture has an overall pale yellow-ochre patina with some scattered dark spots, as well as a handful of very minor impact marks on the domed butt. The lightly sanded one-piece walnut stock is in fine condition, with only a few scratches and handling marks scattered about the added varnish, and the inspector cartouches are visible, but not legible, on the left side. The lock is marked "US / H. ASTON" and "MIDDTN / CONN / 1847", and the barrel next to the bolster is marked "US / JC(?) / P". The the lock is fully functional, and the captive ramrod seats firmly and fully. This is a handsome pistol, and would make a fine representative example for a collection. Antique;
