Hey guys lets see some of your muskets, rifled muskets, pistols and swords.

I'll second that. Unfortunately I have none of the front stuffers, just trapdoors.

My model 1861 Springfield musket, dated 1862. Not shootable, the bore looks like a rusty pipe and it only holds on full cock. But it's a nice wall hanger. I also carried it in the NYC St. Patrick's Day Parade while representing the Fighting 69th New York Infantry.

At first, thought goodies was food. You can see that being host of Food Forum, I have a one tract mind.

Do you have a particular item in mind?

 

[Southern Articifer]

Here are my 4 rifled muskets - all are shooters! Frist: M1855 Springfield dated 1860 (58 cal.). Next: 1861 dated Richmond marked,1861/ Richmond, V.A (58 cal.) - this one spent much of its life as a lamp. I put it back to a shooter. Then: an Enfield, dated 1863 marked Tower, in .577 cal. Last: a contract Lorenz in 58 cal. These were made by Austrian contractors specifically for sale to both North and South during the war.

I like the muskets, and the fact that they are all shooters. A nice collection all told and such a great cross section of weapons from the war. Thank you.

Very nice group of rifled muskets. I like the striping on the Enfield stock. The 61 Richmond looks nice really nice. Very nice 1855 and Austrian Lorenze

I have a lot of other muskets, but these are my US Civil War pieces. From top to bottom:

1. British Ordnance P1845 Extra Service. Found under house in Maine in 2016. Currently in restoration.
2. Belgian M1842 Rifled musket import. Threaded for Springfield nipple. This was found in an estate in VA lat year hanging over a fireplace, had been there for 100+ years. Excellent shooter now.
3. Harper's Ferry M1842 dated 1851. Excellent Condition, shooter.
4. Commercial P1853 dated 1863 "Tower". Confederate import marked. Bore about shot out.
5. Austrian Lorenz Extra Corps Carbine. Excellent Condition.
