"RICHMOND 1862 RIFLED MUSKET. SN NSN. Cal. 58. At some point in 1862, Richmond ran out of or quit using Harpers Ferry parts, and guns could be all Richmond manufactured, including brass buttplate and nosecap, bands with centrally-stamped "U's". Bbls and trigger guards typically show stress lines in the metal. Lockplates now have a low hump, which is characteristic of all further production of Richmond locks through the end of the war. This gun shows all these features, and is all Confederate Richmond-manufactured with exception of contemporarily replaced, blacksmith-made ramrod which fits gun well, and color matches well also. Accompanied by a matching .58 caliber unsurcharged 1855-style bayonet and orig Confederate linen sling. You are bidding on a very nice and presentable 1862-dated gun that is all orig, and better guns are difficult to find. Mr. Michel’s Notes State: “This rifled musket represents the final low hump configuration of the lockplate produced at Richmond. The lockplate is marked “CS / Richmond Va / 1862”. The buttplate is brass as is the nosecap. Provenance: Ex. coll. Carl Pugliese” CONDITION: Bbl is cleaned, gray/bright with areas of pitting, especially around breech.  Front and rear sites appear orig.  Bore is very worn; however, rifling is present.  Other metal surfaces are cleaned and gray/bright.  Brass nosecap and buttplate are smooth.  Stock exhibits color often seen on Richmond wood.  Initials "SHM" are scratched on right side of buttstock.  Buttstock is sound; however, there are a few hairline cracks and one large gouge approx. 1" x 1" x 1/4" deep on bottom. 4-31244 JS156 (9,000-15,000)"
