HANEL of SUHL .58 Half Stock MILITARY CAVALRY Carbine with BAYONET LUG Here Ancestry Guns presents an antique G. Hanel Military Carbine, made circa the Civil War Era in Suhl, Germany. The American Civil War happened during a period of great firearms advancement throughout the world, but particularly in the United States. The primary transition was from muzzle-loaders to breech-loaders, from loose ball and powder to self-contained cartridges. Dozens of different small arms, namely cavalry carbines, were used in the conflict. The war saw obsolete technology fighting next to the cutting edge, and both sides needed it all. Imagine the logistical nightmare of supplying so many different types of ammunition! When the Civil War began, both sides were desperate for small arms. Arms purchasers and speculators scoured Europe and England for small arms available for purchase. Though this example has a relatively unknown maker, no doubt it was by a maker who saw an opportunity to cash in on the American conflict. The overall condition is very good. Original bright patina. The hammer does not hold in the half cock position, but is otherwise strong. The bore is good for its age with serviceable rifling. This example sports a solid stock with average handling wear, dents, and dings. Markings are discernable. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 19-5/8 inches. Caliber: .58 Percussion Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1655 #261018 Price: $1,655.00 Antique: Yes |
