Antique Single Shot MASS. ARMS Co. MAYNARD .30 Rimfire Hunting/TARGET Rifle With Fancy Walnut Stock & Swiss Style Butt Plate!
Description: Antique Single Shot MASS. ARMS Co. MAYNARD .30 Rimfire Hunting/TARGET Rifle With Fancy Walnut Stock & Swiss Style Butt Plate! Here we present an antique Massachusetts Arms Company Single Shot Maynard Rifle in .30 Caliber Rimfire, made by Massachusetts Arms Co. of Chicopee Falls, Mass. The Maynard hunting/target rifle was developed by Edward Maynard. Maynard, a New Jersey dentist, lent his talents to developing a new primer system for guns which allowed for faster reloading of flintlock muskets. The system was intended to make up for the poor results for this style of muskets. The Maynard Carbine would go on to be a primary weapon during the American Civil War. This style rifle was one of the first rifles to use quickly interchangeable barrels of various calibers. Maynard received his first patent in 1845 with the priming system which cycled a small mercury fulminate charge to a percussion cap. This invention turned out to be successful, and the United States Federal Government offered a dollar per weapon to produce them using his method. By 1855 all 1855 model .58 caliber military rifles and carbines were using Maynard's method. In 1851 Maynard patented a breech-loading rifle. The Confederacy during the Civil War took to this method particularly because it did not require the major manufacturing equipment used for most gun production. Maynard founded the Maynard Arms Company in 1857, contracting the Massachusetts Arms Company to manufacture the Maynard Carbines. The Maynard was one of the few patent breech-loaders to survive the Civil War. It continued to be produced for hunting and target shooting until the mid-1890s. The overall condition is very good. Original finish. Strong action. Bright, rifled bore. This rifle features a fancy straight walnut stock. The stock is in fine shape containing a nice smooth finish and minimal scuffs. Sharp checkering on the wrist and fore end. Legible markings. A chip is missing on the left side of the forearm and one from the butt stock. Four screws are present along the right side of the barrel for a side-mounted scope. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 22-1/8 inches. Caliber: .30 Rimfire Short 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 $2095 #217381 SOLD Antique: Yes |
