1865 BURNSIDE Contract SPENCER Saddle Ring CARBINE Antique Cavalry Weapon from the End of the Civil War
Description: 1865 BURNSIDE Contract SPENCER Saddle Ring CARBINE Antique Cavalry Weapon from the End of the Civil War Here we present an antique Burnside Contract Spencer Model 1865 Carbine, made circa 1865 by contract by the Burnside Rifle Company in Providence, Rhode Island. The Spencer was a very successful carbine that was desirable on Civil War battlefields due to its handy size, accuracy, and rate of fire. The magazine tube in the butt holds 7 shots and a captured Confederate soldier is quoted as saying that you “load in the morning and fire all day!” The inventor, Christian Spencer, had the unique opportunity to personally instruct President Abraham Lincoln as he test-fired the rifle, resulting in more military sales. These were used all the way through the Indian Wars on the Western Frontier. This specimen is one of the Burnside Contract, making it scarcer than those made by the Spencer Repeating Rifle Company. Out of the 34,000 made by Burnside, over 30,000 were purchased by the U.S. government. The top of the frame is marked “SPENCER REPEATING RIFLE/PAT’D MARCH 6, 1860/MANUF’D AT PROV. R.I./BY BURNSIDE RIFLE CO.” and “Model 1865”. The overall condition is very good. The iron surfaces are dark with much of the original blue finish turning plum with age. The markings are clear. The walnut stock shows use and weathering and remains solid. The bore is in good condition with strong rifling. The action is excellent. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 20 inches. Caliber: .50 Spencer 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 $2950 #190110 SOLD Antique: Yes |
