Allin Conversations were conducted in 1869 and 1870. When acquired in1974 it was represented and documented, to be “as re-issued” in 1870. With no visible “reconditioning” or machine cleaning / buffing since conversion. There is very little (expected) light surface cracking. Gun Smith inspection confirmed: “Very original”. Barrel has some staining. Patina is very reasonable for 158 years. (1863 to 2021). But no excessive damage or ware. Still retains significant arsenal black. Bore is excellent. Includes bayonet. The right-side lock plate is very clearly stamped “U. S. SPRINGFIELD” with a sharp eagle holding an olive branch and arrows in its talons. Clearly dated 1870 just behind the door hinge. It is also very clearly dated “1863”, just behind the rear hammer screw. Matching serial numbers on the barrel and chamber. Small “u” stamped on the right side of the middle barrel band. Small “u” on the front left side of the front barrel band Call for additional photos or explanations. If you have a question or determine that that there is an error that should be corrected?
