FINE CIVIL WAR Antique JOSLYN ARMS CAVALRY NY TN PA WV NE WI NV OH Spencer
Scarce 1 of 3500 UNION ARMY Carbines Made
Description: FINE CIVIL WAR Antique JOSLYN ARMS CAVALRY NY TN PA WV NE WI NV OH Spencer Scarce 1 of 3500 UNION ARMY Carbines Made Here we present an antique Joslyn Arms U.S. Model 1862 Civil War Cavalry Carbine, made circa 1862-63 in Stonington, Connecticut. The Joslyn Carbine Model 1862, also referred to as the First Model, was a cavalry weapon that used a pivoting breechblock system invented and patented by Massachusetts gun designer Benjamin Franklin Joslyn in 1855, who was the holder of over 25 firearm patents. Under his June 1862 contract, the Joslyn Fire Arms Company produced their first rimfire model carbine now designated as the “Model 1862”. Designed for field use with Federal horse soldiers, the Joslyn Carbine fired a standard Spencer rimfire cartridge of .52 caliber. Approximately 3,500 Model 1862 carbines were made, 2,200 of which the U.S. Government purchased during the Civil War. They were widely issued to the Union cavalry units, including the 4th and 8th Indiana, 19th New York, 13th Tennessee, 9th Pennsylvania, 3rd West Virginia, 1st Nebraska, 2nd Wisconsin, 1st Nevada, and 11th Ohio. As a result of his success with the carbine, the federal government ordered 3,000 of his breech-loading actions in order to build the U.S. National armory made breech-loading rifles. This pre-dates the Allin conversion and some of these 3,000 rifles are suspected to have been issued and used just before the end of the American Civil War. This example has “T.K.L.” on the left of the barrel, the breech, and left of the rear sight base, for Sub-Ordnance Inspector Thomas K. Laley. There are also two good cartouches on the left stock flat. The overall condition is fine. Original finish. The action is excellent and the bore is fine: bright with sharp rifling. The stock shows two good cartouches and remains solid. A hard one to improve upon! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 22 inches. Caliber: .52 Rimfire (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 $3900 #230671 SOLD Antique: Yes |
