REDUCED I cadged this from DGW catalog for one of these I sold earlier:
"This reproduction of the Confederate copy of the British Enfield carbine features a one-piece European walnut fullstock, 35" long with satin oil finish, 2" drop and 14" trigger pull. Its browned barrel is .58 caliber, 24" long, round tapered 1 1/8" at breech to 13/16" at muzzle. Button rifled .006" deep, 1-48" twist, 5 lands measure .577" and 5 grooves measure .589". Front sight is 3/8" dovetail base with steel blade, rear sight is .325" dovetail base, open steel. Brass furniture, color casehardened lock marked "Cook & Brother, N.O.,1861" forward of the hammer w/ Confederate stars and bars stamped on the tail. Single trigger, two barrel bands -- screw type, sling swivels. Steel ramrod."
The gun would be MINT except for some minor Safe Rash. Other than that, only the most minor of handling marks. It is absolutely unfired. Bore is pristine and had heavy factory grease. These retail now around $1200 plus tax and shipping, if available. A bargain at $750 + Shipping.
