FOR SALE Colt 1861 Musket (with all of the extras I have)

[Centerhold]

I bought this rifle in 1995 thinking about getting into Civil War reenacting. That never happened and all the gear I bought went into storage. This rifle went on the wall.

It has only been fired in a couple of matches at the 1994 Fall shoot in Friendship, IN.

There is a very small amount of light surface pitting between the hammer and rear sight.

Extras include:
*Sling
*Tampion
*Extra Nipples
*Extra Rear Sight
*Extra/assorted Rear Sight Screws
*Rear Sight Removal Tool???
*Period Multi Tool
*Shove Through Minnie Ball Greaser

Added:
*Reproduction (Meecham Pattern?) Haversack
*Inline Capper

Added:
*Reproduction CW Regulation Cap Box
*Belt

Added:
*Reproduction CW Cartridge Box
*Cast Minie Balls (65 pcs approx.)

*Added Repro Bayonet w/Frog


$950.

thanks!

 

[Centerhold]

Added haversack and cap box.

 

[Centerhold]

Added Cast Minie balls (65 pcs approx) and a reproduction CW cartridge box.

Most of the Minie balls were cast years ago and were then loaded into paper cartridges. I disassembled them so most of the balls have old lube and powder stuck to them - they will need some cleaning up. The rest of them are as cast. The cartridge box was purchased years ago from Dixie Gun Works and never used.

Are you interested in any trades? I have lots of stuff…

 

[Centerhold]

Not really - I'm selling down some of my stuff. Thanks for asking and good luck!

 

[Penske]

Would consider shipping?

 

[Centerhold]

I would rather not. Have shipped items in the past and ended up with a big mess. Thanks and good luck!

Nice gorgeous rifle. I have an original. Been in the family for generations. Used to shoot it when I was young and indestructible.

 

[Centerhold]

Thaks, It really is a nice rifle - barely used. Just never got around to reenacting as I was planning to. Congrats on your original!

 

[JacLytle03]

Hey Centerhold, still available?
