"KEEN WALKER CARBINE. SN NSN. Cal. 54. Mr. Michel, in his notes, states, "The Keen, Walker & Co. carbine, long known as the Confederate 'Perry' or 'Tilting Breech' carbine and the subject of much speculation as to where it was manufactured, has now been identified as the product of Keen, Walker & Co. in Danville, Virginia. The frame is of brass and unmarked except for Roman numerals on the internal parts. The 22-1/2" bbl is rifled in caliber .54 and also unmarked except for an inspection of proofmark 'P' on the upper side of the barrel near the breech. This specimen has the initials 'AH' carved on the top of the comb near the stock". This is a fine example that appears in near "attic", untouched condition. It would be difficult to find a more pleasing specimen of this scarce Confederate carbine. Mr. Michel’s Notes State: “The Keen Walker & Co. carbine, long known as the Confederate “Perry” or “Tilting Breech” carbine and the subject of much speculation as to where it was manufactured, has now been identified as the product of Keen, Walker & Co. in Danville, Virginia. The frame is of brass and unmarked, except for Roman numerals on the internal parts. The 22½” barrel is rifled in caliber .54 and also unmarked except for an inspection or proof mark “P” on the upper side of the barrel near the breech. This specimen has the initials “AH” carved on top of the comb of the stock.” PROVENANCE: Ben Michel collection. CONDITION: Copper/brass frame has nice patina, as does the brass sideplate. Note the dissimilar patinas due to the dissimilar alloys. This is a distinctive characteristic of this particular maker. Bbl is smooth and brown with areas of scattered pitting. "P" proof on bbl is crisp and sharp. Rifling and bore is very good. Stock retains over half of its orig varnish. Traces of orig blue are found on trigger guard. Nipple is probably replaced. 4-31344 JS117 (20,000-25,000)"
