"RICHMOND ASSEMBLED CARBINE. SN NSN. Cal. 58. A very rare form of Richmond Altered Carbine predating the 1863 Rifled carbine. Only a few these are known to still exist. Mr. Michel, in his notes calls this gun a "Richmond Model 1842 Altered Carbine" and describes it as follows: "In 1862, Richmond produced a limited number of carbines having the lock, stock, and bbl of the Model 1842 musket. Bbl has been shortened to 25" with a front sight of the wide base and pinched sight of the Richmond rifled carbine and rifle. Stock is cut back to between front band and muzzle, and the wood simply rounded off. There is no nosecap. Like the Richmond rifled carbine, there are three sling swivels, one in the front band, one on the trigger guard bow, and one on a screw base located behind the trigger guard plate." CONDITION: Metal surfaces with exception of rear sling swivel are brown, smooth with scattered pitting. Rear sling swivel is brown and pitted. Front sling swivel is restored. Ramrod has solid tulip end and color matches other metal on this gun. 4-31252(3,000-5,000)"
