"RICHMOND 1864 CARBINE. SN NSN. Cal. 58. Mr. Michel, in his notes, states, "The final production year of the 'new rifled carbine' first produced in 1863. The 25" long bbl has a special front sight with a wide base and pinched sight form. The 2 bands are the same as the rear and middle bands as a 3-band rifled musket. There are 3 sling swivels, one on the front band, one on the trigger bow, and one on a screw based located behind the trigger guard plate. Nosecap and buttplate are of brass. Lockplate is marked forward of the hammer 'CS / Richmond Va' and at the tail is the date '1864'. Armory records include only 2 carbines produced in January 1865." You are bidding on a last year of production, 1864-dated Richmond carbine with lock and bbl date. These guns saw generally very hard use, and pitting at bolster most often obliterated bbl dates. This gun exhibits a strong 1864 bbl date. Stock on this gun is superior, showing sharp edges and some orig varnish. CONDITION: Bbl is brown/black with pitting.  Bbl retains orig front and rear sights, which are very good.  Rifling is good.  Lock is dark and pitted.  Trigger guard and bands and ramrod are cleaned with scattered pitting.  2 small initials, possibly inspector, are stamped rear of trigger guard.  These initials are possibly "JB" or "JH".  Stock is sound with good edges and some orig varnish over numerous small gouges, scrapes, and scratches.  Initials "WSP" are scratched in left flat of buttstock.  Brass nosecap and buttplate exhibit good patina.  Ramrod has solid tulip end, not of Richmond manufacture, but fits gun well and presents nicely with it. 4-31250 JS160 (9,000-15,000)"
