INDIAN WARS Antique SPRINGFIELD Model 1868 Breech Loading TRAPDOOR Rifle
With BAYONET, Scabbard, Leather Hanger, & SLING
Description: INDIAN WARS Antique SPRINGFIELD Model 1868 Breech Loading TRAPDOOR Rifle
With BAYONET, Scabbard, Leather Hanger, & SLING
Here we present a Springfield U.S. Model 1868 Trapdoor Rifle with Bayonet, made circa 1870 in Springfield, Massachusetts for the U.S. Military. Over 51,000 Model 1868 rifles were produced at the Springfield Armory between 1868 and 1872. These arms feature the distinctive “Trap Door” breech loading system designed by Master Armorer Erskine S. Allin, who was the key to many military issued and experimental arms between 1865 and 1894. Some Model 1868 rifles were produced with lockplates bearing the dates of 1863 or 1864, while barrels are dated 1869 or 1870.
The Trapdoor Rifle was the primary weapon in the U.S. military from the end of the Civil War to the end of the 19th Century, encompassing the Indian Wars and even the Spanish-American War in Cuba. It was still being used when the Springfield 1903 was adopted. These rifles were initially made by converting muzzle loading Civil War muskets to single load cartridges from the breech by installing a “trapdoor”. Later iterations were purpose built from the ground up and chambered for .45-70 GOVT, but these early conversion examples were chambered for the even more massive .50-70 GOVT.
The overall condition is good. Strong action. Bright bore. This example sports a solid stock with average wear. A “circle/P” is stamped on the bottom of the wrist. “1863” dated lock. Legible markings. Both the leather sling and bayonet are in good shape.

Barrel is 32-5/8 inches.
