Antique HENRY DERINGER U.S. Model 1817 Flintlock .54 Caliber “COMMON RIFLE” “US” Marked 1 of 13,000 Contracted by Henry Deringer
Description: Antique HENRY DERINGER U.S. Model 1817 Flintlock .54 Caliber “COMMON RIFLE” “US” Marked 1 of 13,000 Contracted by Henry Deringer Here Ancestry Guns presents an antique U.S. Model 1817 “Common Rifle” from the Henry Deringer Contract, made in 1841 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Manufactured as part of the U.S. Government Contract, Henry Deringer, of his infamous pocket pistol fame, manufactured around 13,000 contract rifles in multiple variations between 1817 and the early 1840s. The Model 1817 common rifle (also known as the Deringer M1817 rifle) was issued due to the Dept. of Ordnance's order of 1814, produced and used from 1817 to the 1840s on the American frontier. Like the Model 1814, it had a large oval patchbox in the buttstock. Many of these were used during the American Civil War, especially in the early days of the conflict when military weapons were hard to come by. Over time, these flintlock rifles became obsolete, but they still saw service during the Civil War. While all were originally flintlocks, many were converted to percussion cap for their firing mechanism. The overall condition is nearing fine. A mixed gray and brown patina is present throughout. The bore has a fairly consistent shine, dimming at the muzzle with serviceable rifling. Two cartouches are present on the left wrist. A “US/JH” and “P” is on top of the breech. Strong action. This example has been reconverted to flintlock. Very good and solid stock with average handling wear. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 36 inches.
