CIVIL WAR U.S. Mass Arms Co SMITH PATENT SADDLE RING CAVALRY Carbine .50cal

WV, IL, CT, PA, OH, MA CAVALRIES

Here we present an antique U.S. Massachusetts Arms Co. Smith’s Patent Carbine, made circa 1863 by Massachusetts Arms Co. of Chicopee Falls, Massachusetts, and retailed by Poultney and Trimble of Baltimore, Maryland. A total of 30,362 of these carbines were made with a production run between 1861 and 1865, and almost all of them were used in the Union cavalry of the American Civil War. Many were used after the war throughout the U.S. including by the Indians during their raids into Canada.

The designer was Dr. Gilbert Smith of New York. His design featured a simple break open action, providing a single shot, utilizing a cartridge made of rubber. While many different cartridges were in use simultaneously during the war—which must have been a logistical nightmare—the rubber cartridge was both a nuisance to the shooter who had to get the hot gummy thing out of the chamber once fired, as well as to the ammunition manufacturer, who had to acquire rubber from distant places. In place of rubber, many other materials were also tried.

According to Flayderman, the Smith Carbine was known to have been utilized in number by the 3rd West Virginia, 7th and 11th Illinois, 1st Connecticut, 7th and 17th Pennsylvania, 6th and 9th Ohio, and 1st Massachusetts Cavalries.

The over condition is fine. Original finish. The action is excellent. The bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. The walnut stock is solid, showing use, and retains two clear cartouches. Numbers match.

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.

Barrel is 21-5/8 inches.

Caliber: .50 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.
