Harpers Ferry m1816 Musket
Dated 1838
A very solid and hefty m1816 dated 1838 from Harpers Ferry. This would be the Type III version of the 1816, and is a very nice example of a very common weapon in the early days of the War for either Federal or Confederate impressions. There are no cracks in the stocks, and a nice patina over the entire musket. The bore has only light pitting near the muzzle, but otherwise would be an excellent shooter.
​
The stock is very good, and dense! The inspector cartouches are worn, however, there are reassembly stampings. The mainspring could use a rehardening before it sees use in the field. It appears to be a reproduction, but overall, the action is still very hefty.
