WAR of 1812 DATED Antique U.S. HARPERS FERRY ARMORY M1795 FLINTLOCK Musket
Early U.S. Military Musket Dated “1812”
Description: WAR of 1812 DATED Antique U.S. HARPERS FERRY ARMORY M1795 FLINTLOCK Musket Early U.S. Military Musket Dated “1812” Here we present an antique U.S. Harpers Ferry Model 1795 Flintlock Musket, manufactured circa 1812 at the Harpers Ferry Armory in Harpers Ferry, Virginia. The Model 1795 was a smooth bore, flintlock based musket and the first weapon system to be produced within the United States. It was designed very closely patterning the French “Charleville” Flintlock Musket that was used to by the colonists against the British during the American Revolutionary War. Muskets made at Harpers Ferry proceeded along with their own evolutional development and were different from those longarms made at the Springfield Armory. Springfield Armory produced 80,000 of these, with Harpers Ferry responsible for another 70,000. Production of this musket ran from 1795 through 1818. It wasn’t until the Model 1816 that Springfield and Harpers Ferry made muskets that had interchangeable parts. The Model 1795 found her way into several important American conflicts of the time, including the War of 1812 between the United States and the British Empire, the Mexican-American War, and even the Civil War. The 1795 would also be taken along by members of the American expedition led by Lewis and Clark from 1803 to 1806. Use of the Model 1795 was recorded as late as 1865 for the southern Confederate forces who were still fielding her late in the Civil War. The overall condition is good. Even patina throughout. The barrel was shortened slightly, likely due to a ding at the muzzle. “HARPERS/FERRY/1812” is marked on the lock, along with the Federal Eagle. The action does not have a mainspring at present, but the cock does hold half- and full-cock. The bore is smooth and patinated. The walnut stock shows use and remains solid and still bearing visible inspector cartouche: “V/MH”. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 42-1/2 inches. Caliber: .69 Flintlock Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $2700 #233052 SOLD Antique: Yes |
