1841 SPRINGFIELD MISSISSIPPI RIFLE. MFG BY ROBBINS & LAWRENCE 58 CALIBER
Description:
The Mississippi rifle was the first standard U.S. military rifle to use a percussion lock system. Percussion lock systems were much more reliable and weatherproof than the flintlock systems that they replaced, and were such an improvement that many earlier flintlock rifles and muskets were later converted to percussion lock systems.
The Mississippi rifle was originally produced in .54 caliber, using 1:66 rifling and no provision for fixing a bayonet.
In 1855, the Mississippi rifle was changed to .58 caliber, so that it could use the .58 caliber Minie Ball that had recently become standard. Many older Mississippi rifles were re-bored to .58 caliber. The rifle was also modified to accept a sword type bayonet.
The first Mississippi rifles had a v-notch sight.
The metal has a smooth dark brown finish with some pitting around the nipple that is typical. The brass furniture has a pleasant warm patina. The wood is in very nice condition with no structural damage or repairs and a faint cartouch on the left side above the trigger. The bore is dark but smooth and clear. This rifle still sports the original ramrod and percussion nipple, which is clear to the chamber. The lock functions well and holds in half and full cock. Lockplate is inscribed "Robins & Lawrence U.S." "WINDSOR VT 1849. The buttplate is inscribed on the top with "U.S.
