Antique U.S. SPRINGFIELD ARMORY M1816 Percussion “CONE” Conversion Musket
Converted Flintlock to Percussion
Description: Antique U.S. SPRINGFIELD ARMORY M1816 Percussion “CONE” Conversion Musket Converted Flintlock to Percussion Here we present an antique Springfield U.S. Model 1816 Conversion Musket, manufactured at the armory at Springfield, Massachusetts, circa 1817. This Model 1816 flintlock musket has been converted to percussion using the Belgian Style Alteration method, more commonly known as the “Cone Type” conversion. All external lock parts were removed with the screw hole plugged, the pan ground flush with lock plate (leaving the remnants intact) and the small existing cavity in the pan filled with brass to give it a level or squared off profile along the top. The vent hole of the barrel was plugged with a nipple screwed into the threaded receptacle at the top of the barrel, set off center towards the lock side. Then, adding the distinctive arsenal, military hammer. This is an interesting piece. There is a condemnation mark on the left side of the barrel just about level with the top of the stock. This musket was shortened during the period of use, possibly for use as a “carbine” for someone on a horse or just as a handy and versatile hunting piece. The butt plate looks like it came from a European military musket. The tail of the Springfield marked lock is dated 1817. The rammer is something made for this musket of iron. The overall condition is good. Strong action. Good bore. The walnut stock is solid. There is a small graft just under the lock and there is a thin, stable crack along the grain at the toe of the stock. “FWG” is stamped on the bottom of the butt stock. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 34-1/2 inches. Caliber: .69 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 $1385 #210625 SOLD Antique: Yes |
