SUPER CONDITION Poultney & Trimble Smith Cavalry Carbine
Description: Serial #11805, .50 cal, 21 5/8" part round part octagon barrel with a bright excellent bore. The barrel of this very fine carbine retains about 97% original blue showing some mild thinning at the muzzle, a small area of minor freckling along the left side and a few scattered handling marks. The action retains about 90% vibrant case-hardened colors showing a few scattered specks of old oxidation staining, some light handling marks and the left side muting to a pleasant silvery case-hardened patina. The barrel band and buttplate have mostly flaked to a deep plum-brown patina showing remnants of original bright blue, while the sling bar and ring are mostly gunmetal patina showing a little brown freckling. The triggerguard retains about 95% original bright blue showing some light flaking along the bow and the action latch spring retains a healthy amount of fine pale fire blue, many of the screw heads also with nice pale fire blue. The Poultney & Trimble address and Mass. Arms Co. maker-markings on the left side frame remain crisp and clear. The smooth walnut stock and forend remain in very fine condition, the buttstock near excellent, showing a strong original oil finish with some scattered light handling marks. The forend shows a shallow dent on the right side and a tiny repaired chip ahead of the screw escutcheon. The barrel is matching the frame, locks up tightly with no play/no wobble, and the hammer functions crisply. Schuyler, Hartley & Graham were the most prominent commercial retailers of the Smith Carbine during the war although most were purchased by the Federal government. TERMS: No international sales.
