    FOR SALE Belgian .71 caliber

    I am repurposing my collection to a different subject so am letting some go to make room for the new ones. This is a .71 Caliber Belgian Model 1816 updated to a Model 1822 dated 1838. It started out flintlock and was upgraded to percussion in the late 1840's to early 1850's and then rifled...

    TRADE Trade for a Fenian marked Bridesburg or similar

    I am looking for a M1861/63 Bridesburg or other maker but it must have the "IN" or IR Shamrock on the left flat for the Fenians. It must be its original length.

    Austrian Muster Model 1842 Musket

    Our local Historical Society has this Austrian Muster M1842 Musket hanging on the wall that was burned in Atlanta in 1864. Thought it is interesting. Proves these smoothbores were still being used as late as 1864. They have it labeled as a French Musket but I was told differently in another forum.

    1838 Pomeroy Type III

    I have this1838 Musket. I have learned a lot about it but trying to learn more. It is a Pomeroy made in 1838 So should be a M1822/28 or Type III. Converted to percussion I understand sometime around 1850. Has two Arsenal cartouches, one is Joseph Hannis and the other I believe is Mann Page...
