Antique CHARLEVILLE Pattern .69 Cal. FLINTLOCK Musket w British Tower Lock
Late-18th French-British Fusion MILITARY MUSKET
Description: Antique CHARLEVILLE Pattern .69 Cal. FLINTLOCK Musket w British Tower Lock Late-18th French-British Fusion MILITARY MUSKET Here we present an antique Charleville Pattern Flintlock Musket. The Charleville was designed very closely patterning the French “Charleville” Flintlock Musket that was used to by the colonists against the British during the American Revolutionary War. The Charleville smoothbore musket, garnering its name from the main arsenal in Charleville, France, was the standard issue flintlock musket for the French Empire throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. The original musket was first delivered in 1717, and over the next several decades, saw many revisions and improvements, making them a lighter, better fighting musket. It is estimated that tens of thousands of Charleville muskets were produced throughout the 1700’s and into the early 1800s. The Charleville musket served in many conflicts, including the French Revolution, the Napoleonic Wars, the American Revolution, and the War of 1812. In the United States, the Charleville is perhaps most famous for its use against the British colonists during the French and Indian War. This one is certainly an interesting piece. The Charleville was a weapon used by the American Revolutionaries while the British used the Brown Bess. Parts were often scavenged and adapted to fit one or the other to make a complete and functioning musket. This may very well be such a one. The overall condition is good. Strong action. This has been reconverted to flintlock. The bore is in good shape. Solid stock with a stable crack on the right side of the wrist. Very good leather sling. Legible markings. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 42 inches. Caliber: .69 Flintlock 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 $2600 #220335 SOLD Antique: Yes |
