So who was the manufacturer? Zoli, Euroarms, Pedersoli? I'm guess Euroarms.

Not sure....no outside markings and I've not pulled the barrel.

My guess would be Euroarms.

Those are great rifles. My son scored a 10X with his at 50 yards first shot. Mine shoots well also. Patched .530 round ball. Someone will get this soon.

 

[David Smith03]

I would be interested in using this to work up a trade on a Kibler SMR, preferably in .45 but would consider a .36.

 

[David Smith03]

I'll reduce the price to $700 plus shipping.

Bore is in great shape!!

This Armory Bright finish is the most historically accurate finish as the browning found on the stock M1841 reproduction rifles is a spray-on finish and not remotely correct. Also, many Civil War-used M1841 were polished to Armory Bright before being issued because they had been sitting in storage for over a decade by the time the war broke out and often had to be cleaned up before use. Armory bright finishes are also appropriate for most of the 58 caliber M1841's (with the exception of the larger firms like Harper's Ferry) as original records indicate that polishing the barrels and locks was standard practice by many of the smaller firms who re-bored the guns. The only correct stamping then is a VP and eagle stamped on the breach.

Would really like to see pics of the underside of the barrel/breech, and the inside of the lock. Easy to remove those in a couple of minutes.

Very handsome! I’m curious what the twist rate is?
