Does anyone have any information on these besides the little blip in "WEAPONS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION"? Seems to be not much info around on these.
Thanks guys. :thumbsup: The only info I have on it is What chuckPA referenced , 38" barrel, brass plated bands etc. I'm hoping to figure out what they are worth as I have located one. :wink:chuckpa said:I have 2 books Titled Weapons of the American Rev.
one by Moore and the other by Neuman. On page 99 in Moore's book is a picture of a French officer's or sergeant's musket with a 38" barrel. He remarks that it is unusual in that the steel bands and some of the hardware are covered with a sort of brass veneer. This is basically a 1763 type with minor variations. I hope this helps.
