1863 Dated CIVIL WAR Era Antique SAVAGE M1861 Rifle-Musket SOLDIER GRAFFITI Mid-Civil War U.S. Contract Musket
Description: 1863 Dated CIVIL WAR Era Antique SAVAGE M1861 Rifle-Musket SOLDIER GRAFFITI Mid-Civil War U.S. Contract Musket Here we present an antique Savage Revolving Fire Arms Company U.S. Contract Model 1861 Civil War Rifle-Musket, made in 1863 in Middletown, Connecticut. Savage was a major contractor in the Civil War who supplied the government with some 25,520 such muskets for the army. The Model 1861 was the primary infantry weapon of the American Civil War for the Union. The Federal army was not prepared for war in 1861. Quite a few of its arms were in southern hands, and the two armories, Springfield, Massachusetts and Harpers Ferry, Virginia, could not make the standard rifle-musket quickly enough to supply the army. Early in the War, Harpers Ferry was captured, and the machinery was sent to the south. The result was that the Union turned to contractors. The Model 1861 was contracted out to over 20 different companies aside from the national armory at Springfield. Compared to the total production numbers of over a million, production of the Savage contract was limited at 25,520 making these scarce and desirable. The overall condition is good+. Patina throughout. The action is excellent. The bore is dim with some thin rifling visible at the back. The stock is solid and shows the soldier graffiti on both sides with the initials “GL” on the left and “LOUIS/17NY” on the right. The ramrod is a nice replacement. There is a stable split along the grain, just forward of the middle barrel band spring. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 40 inches. Caliber: .65 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 $2000 #240113 SOLD Antique: Yes |
