"RICHMOND 1861 RIFLED MUSKET. SN NSN. Cal. 58. Mr. Michel, in his notes, describes this gun as follows: "This rifled musket represents the first type produced at Richmond before the takeover by the central government and subsequent marking with the 'CS' designation. Lockplate is marked forward of the hammer 'Richmond Va' and at tail '1861'. Gun retains both orig sights. Rifling is visible, though faint. No bbl date or proofs are visible due to rust and pitting. Stock has correct 1855-style mortise under lock, as to be expected on an 1861 Richmond assemblage. Ramrod has interesting repair, where orig tulip-shaped end has been repaired by blacksmith with 1/4" cylindrical tip. CONDITION: Bbl bands, iron buttplate, and nosecap are brown and pitted, as is trigger guard. Lockplate and hammer are gray with scattered areas of muted casecolor and pitting. Ramrod is gray/brown with scattered areas of pitting. Stock is solid and has typical red color often encountered in these guns. There are numerous dings, gouges, scrapes, and scratches, especially on wood opposite lock. 4-31242 JS152 (4,000-6,000)"
