Hi folks! I'm new to the forum. I just purchased a Burnside Carbine (#5). Serial # 17960.
Does anyone have any info as to what unit or service this carbine may have had?
Thanks!
Navy Diver.
 
Welcome From THE Heart Of Dixie. Your Burnside is not listed in the SRS. Below are all the ones with a 179. One thing about the SRS is if it ain't listed it ain't listed and you can NOT go by any of the other serial# as far as range of issue.
17903 08 64CO I 4TH WISC VOL CAV
17903 100164CO I 4TH WISC VOL CAV
17914 091563CO C 12TH NY VOL CAV
17982 08 63CO E 4TH WISC VOL CAV

Don't miss the Chattanooga Civil War & Artifact Show July 27-28. Their first one there was last year and was very well attended with some of the bigger dealers set up. The snack bar is also unusually good for a gun show !!
I'll be hanging out at Rafael Eledges' table {Shiloh Relics}

Will try and make it and look you up. Gun shows here in Chattanooga have been dwindling as far as dealer participation. Sucks!
