 | 81. Civil War Enfield Rifled Carbine. This 1862 Enfield rifled carbine has a 24" barrel with a three leaf back sight and a standard Enfield front sight. It has a saber bayonet locking lug on the side of the barrel. It has good strong rifling in this .577 bore. It has two iron clamping bands and a front band sling swivel. The butt-plate, trigger guard, side plate escutcheons and the nose cap are all brass. The stock has typical inspector’s mark. The lock and hammer have a line engraving. To the rear of the hammer is a crown and to the front of the hammer it says "Tower 1862" and typical British proofs. The stock is a pretty wood, somewhat tiger striped, with about 99% of its finish left. It completes with its own ramrod. Again, the Enfield was the second most used firearm in the Civil War and both sides prized them highly. This beautiful little carbine is only $999.99. |
| 82. Brown Bess Musket Reproduction. If you are a re-enactor and want your musket to look old this will be ideal. I have owned this musket for thirty years and have completely sanitized the outside metal and it has no reproduction marks. All of the metal has a silver black patina typical of 150 years of use and abuse. The stock has been carved around the tang and has been finished in a deep brown-black distressed look typically found on period weapons. The bore is in very good condition. The lock is absolutely "sure fire" and goes off immediately without any delay. You can not tell this gun from a original. The brass butt-plate, trigger guard, side plate, ramrod funnels and the nose cap have a deep mustard brown patina. It comes complete with a ramrod. $499.99. |
| 83. 1816 Contract Musket by D. Nippes. The 42" 69 caliber barrel is marked U.S. and the letters "NWP" appear under the U.S. The letter "P" is surrounded by a serrated circle and the numbers "1835" on the tang, which I assume is the serial number. The bore is in good condition and there is virtually no pitting on the black and silver barrel. It has a percussion conversion with percussion nipples set into the side of the barrel. The lock has the date 1840 stamped behind the hammer and "U.S. D. Nippes" in front of the hammer. The lock still has a portion of the brass pan remaining from the conversion. Three bands, trigger guard and butt-plate all have a silvery black finish. The sling swivels are on the guard bow and the second band. The stock is unusual in that it is flame grained with 95 % of its original finish remaining. The stock has the manufacturing marks and acceptance marks . It also has it’s original ramrod. This old historic piece is in extremely nice shape and priced at only $999.99. |
| 84. 1816 Model Harper’s Ferry Flintlock Musket. The 42" 69 caliber barrel has "V and P" proof marks on the breach and in very small letters on the tang. Also near the tang it has stampings "H". The number "82" appears underneath the H on the end of the barrel and the number "184" is on the tang. All of the iron is a blackish-silver finish and the sling swivels on the guard bow of the second band. It has a large "M" stamped on the front part of the guard bow. The stock is a very pleasing reddish brown walnut with all of the appropriate inspectors marks on it. The stock has a slight chip on the left side by the tang and a small chip on the right side near the frizzen spring. The lock is marked Harper’s Ferry 1839 behind the hammer and has an eagle holding arrows and "U.S." underneath in front of the hammer. The Type Three a.k.a. "National Armory Bright" made 1831 to 1834, were almost all converted to percussion for use in the Civil War, hence genuine Flintlock specimens are very scarce and rare. This specimen is $4999.99 and well worth every penny of it. |
| 85. Little Nickel Nightmare with the name Defender on the top strap made in the 1870’s. This little 22 caliber 7 shot revolver has 90% nickel. The cylinder pin is broken off in the frame and the cylinder does not turn and I assume the handspring is missing or broken. It has no grips, but this little gun is well worth restoring as it is a genuine part of the old west. As "hookers and gamblers" loved them and a number of cowboys carried them as back-up. No FFL needed. This firearm is non-shootable and should not be fired with modern ammunition as that would cause it to explode. $49.99. |
| 86. SOLD Another Suicide Special with the name Defender on the top strap made in the 1870’s. A 7 shot 22 caliber revolver has 50% of nickel remaining and again the cylinder does turn when you cock the hammer. This one is also without grips. No FFL needed. This firearm is non-shootable and should not be fired with modern ammunition that would cause it to explode. $39.99. |
| 87. Smith and Wesson Model 100 Semi-Automatic Shotgun. 12 gauge and 2¾" chamber with a modified choke. The barrel is 28" with vent rib and looks brand new. Both metal and wood are 99.99% finish. Has a slip-on rubber recoil pad and it is all set for your next hunting expedition. With its engraving on the frame, you will not find any nicer. $250.00. A FFL is required to purchase this firearm. |
| 88. Westernfield Model 550ABD 12 gauge Pump 3 inch chamber. This 28 inch barrel gun has a factory installed Poly-Choke so you can safely use steel and it looks virtually brand new. It has a rubber slip on recoil pad. $149.99. A FFL is required to purchase this firearm. |
| 89. Extremely high grade American Rifle made by someone schooled in the British school of gunsmithing. This rifle was probably meant for the Western Trade in the 1840’s or 1850’s. The 32½" octagon barrel is 52 caliber and it appears to have a very good rifled bore. It appears that the barrel is 1 and 1/16th at the muzzle and 1 and 1/8th at its patent breach with platinum blow out plug. The rear sight is 8½" from the breach and it has a typical silver front sight. All iron furniture on this very unusual rifle is engraved in a British very small style. This rifle is very unusual in that it looks like a half stock Kentucky Rifle with finger projections on its trigger guard and very sharply curved c-shaped butt-plate. The stock has a checkering at fore-end and wrist. The barrel is held on by one barrel escutcheon and the front end of the stock has an interesting Scheobel fore-end. With absolutely no ramrod or ramrod funnels. This firearm has a very nice set of double set triggers and its only draw back is that is that the very tip of its hammer has been broken off. It has a check piece on the left side and the stock is a very pretty striped and molted walnut. It appears to me that the stock has never been sanded, but was given a coat of varnish sometime in its life. But the piece has obviously been used enough that the 90% finish appears right. $999.99. |
