U.S. Model 1861 Musket By Savage With Bayonet NJ Markings....Civil War......LAYAWAY?
Description: NICE CONDITION!!!....U.S. Model 1861 Musket By Savage With Bayonet NJ Markings....Civil War......LAYAWAY? .58 cal., 40” barrel with a mostly bright fine bore showing some areas of very light pitting in the otherwise strong rifling. The metal surfaces are bright as lightly cleaned with scattered areas of softened light pitting and some light oxidation. “N.J” is stamped on the left breech flat of the barrel, “V / P / (Eagle head)” is on the left quarter-flat, and the top of the breech is dated 1863. The lockplate is also dated 1863 and shows a clear federal eagle and “SAVAGE R.F.A. Co. / MIDDLETOWN, Ct.” The walnut stock rates about FINE as lightly cleaned with an added finish and overall light dents, dings, and handling marks. “N.J” is stamped on the left breech flat, and there are a few small and illegible letters stamped on the right side of the buttstock. The sights, cupped tulip-head ramrod with retaining swell, and sling swivels are intact, the cleanout screw on the bolster is a later replacement, and the action is strong and crisp. Included is a U.S. Model 1855-70 socket bayonet which is bright showing signs of an old light cleaning with some spots of light pitting on the socket and locking ring, some scattered spots of light oxidation, and there is a partially softened “US” on the base of the face of the blade. The bayonet fits the muzzle of the rifle-musket very well. A nice Savage-produced Model 1861 with New Jersey markings. ...2nd Firearm SHIPS FREE WITH THIS ONE!.....S/H $55. ....Thanks.
