Description: This is an example of a Model 1838 breech loading carbine manufactured by Simeon North of Middletown, Connecticut between 1834 and 1839. The Model 1838 Carbine is historically important as the earliest percussion and breech loading weapon officially adopted by the U.S. or any other government. The 52 caliber Hall carbines were carried by the 2nd U.S. Dragoons for their initial service in Florida and were later replaced with the Model 1836. A combination bayonet / ramrod was mounted in the forearm, normally missing, this gun has it!. The breech is released by a spur type latch mounted forward of the trigger guard. There is a small sliding catch to hold the latch closed. The barrel, receiver, trigger guard, barrel bands and buttplate were finished in brown lacquer and the breechblock and hammer were casehardened. The front of the breechblock is marked " S.NORTH / MIDLtn. / CONN. / 1838". A sub-inspector's initials "NWP" are stamped on the left side of the barrel behind the rear sight. Two finger ridges behind the trigger guard bow and a sling ring at the end of the trigger plate. One piece smooth walnut stock secured by two barrel bands with an oval "FA" inspectors cartouche on the upper left flat just behind the receiver, iron buttplate and implement compartment on the bottom.
