VALLEY FORGE Antique W.L. EVANS Contract U.S M1816 FLINTLOCK Musket
SCARCE One of Only 5,000 Type I Muskets Produced
Description: VALLEY FORGE Antique W.L. EVANS Contract U.S M1816 FLINTLOCK Musket SCARCE One of Only 5,000 Type I Muskets Produced Here we present an antique W.L. Evans Contract Model 1816 Type I Flintlock Musket made circa 1826 in Valley Forge, (Evansburg), Pennsylvania. These muskets were made for the United States military on contract from 1825 to 1832-33. This example is an original M1816 model musket made by W. L. Evans of Evansburg, Pennsylvania, sometimes referred to as Valley Forge. The gun maker, Evans, who produced some 5,000 Type I muskets circa 1825 to 1830, has his name mis-spelled (W. L. Evens) on the lockplates on only the “Type One” muskets. The lock on this Type I longarm is incorrectly spelled “EVENS” and dated 182? with the last number not visible on the lock with 5,000 made. This musket is a smoothbore .69 caliber, single shot muzzleloader with a 42 inch barrel. While the years in between the War of 1812 and the American Civil War may appear to be quiet, this period of American history was quite busy as more states and territories were born and settled, Native Americans were resettled, and both Native and slave rebellions were put down. The overall condition is good. The stock is solid with stable cracks sitting above flush below the lock. A sliver of stock is missing beside the barrel tang. The forend is in good shape with grain splits. The bore is dark. Strong action with a reconverted lock. Legible markings. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 42 inches. Caliber: .69 Flintlock 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 $2000 #250123 SOLD Antique: Yes |
