SAVAGE Contract NEW JERSEY U.S. CIVIL WAR Antique Model 1861 Rifle-MUSKET NJ State Militia Infantry Arm
Description: SAVAGE Contract NEW JERSEY U.S. CIVIL WAR Antique Model 1861 Rifle-MUSKET NJ State Militia Infantry Arm Here we present an antique Savage Revolving Fire Arms Company U.S. Contract Model 1861 Civil War Rifle-Musket, made in 1863 in Middletown, Connecticut, for the State of New Jersey. Savage was a major contractor in the Civil War who supplied the government with some 25,520 such muskets for the army. The Model 1861 was the primary infantry weapon of the American Civil War for the Union. The Federal army was not prepared for war in 1861. Quite a few of its arms were in southern hands, and the two armories, Springfield, Massachusetts and Harpers Ferry, Virginia, could not make the standard rifle-musket quickly enough to supply the army. Early in the War, Harpers Ferry was captured, and the machinery was sent to the south. The result was that the Union turned to contractors. The Model 1861 was contracted out to over 20 different companies aside from the national armory at Springfield. Compared to the total production numbers of over a million, production of the Savage contract was limited at 25,520 making these scarce and desirable. The lock is dated “1863” and “SAVAGE R.F.A. CO./MIDDLETOWN, CON.” can be clearly read. “US” is marked on the butt plate. “NJ” marked barrel and stock. The overall condition is near fine. Retains its armory bright finish with just a small amount of freckling. The action is excellent. The bore is reflective with sharp rifling. The walnut stock shows clear inspection markings and remains solid. A fantastic example of a Model 1861 rifle from a scarce and desirable maker! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 40 inches. Caliber: .58 Percussion 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 $3195 #228227 SOLD Antique: Yes |
