"VIRGINIA MANUFACTORY CONFEDERATE ALTERATION MUSKET. SN NSN. Cal. 69. This gun, once in the collection of Giles Cromwell, is illustrated in his article in the American Society of Arms Collectors Bulletin No. 52 on p. 34. Mr. Michel describes this gun as follows: "Cone-in-bbl alteration to percussion of Virginia Manufactory musket. Lockplate of musket marked forward of hammer 'Virginia Manufactory' and at tail 'Richmond 1811'. Rear bbl band also dated '1811'. All components are marked with orig assembly number '77'. Confederate alterations by the cone-in-bbl method are very rarely encountered. This type alteration has been tentatively attributed to John B. Barret & Co. in Wytheville, Virginia". CONDITION: This gun appears orig and matching in every regard. Assembly number "77" appears on all metal parts, including bands, trigger guard, buttplate, sideplate, and bbl. 4-31277 JS209 (3,000-5,000)"
