Original Antique 1816 Springield Flintlock Musket. This was officially the second weapon manufactured by the USA. (First being the Model 1795). It would have been very common during the Texas revolution, Mexican-American wars, American-Indian War, and Texas-Indian Wars. Many were also converted to percussion for the civil war.

This is a m1816 made in 1828. Contracted by “M.T. WICKHAM”. Behind the lock reads “PHILA 1828”, forward of the lock reads “US M.T. WICKHAM”. Barrel plug has matching 1828. Proper LS/US inspector markings on barrel as well as circle P.

The stock has a clear & correct cartouche on left flat, as well as a number “8” forward of the butt plate (presumably a rack number). Strong springs, lock functions great. Buttplate has proper “US”. Both sling swivels in tact. Proper period correct ramrod.

Barrel length: 42”
OAL: 58”
Weight: 9.6 lbs

$1350, shipped to your door (via PayPal).

Here’s a chance to own a really nice condition original Springfield musket for the price of an Italian reproduction. PM for more photos. Thanks and have a blessed day.
