The walnut stock was made in two pieces with the seam under the middle band. Sling swivels on the trigger guard and middle band. Hall butt plate, hall bands. Trumpet style ramrod. These rifles and carbines were assembled from parts left over from Hall rifles and carbines purchased by the southern states. Two variations of rifles, Types 1 and 2. Type 2 having a shorter buttstock. See John Murphy's book, Confederate Rifles & Muskets, Chapter LXVI, p. 583.
Provenance: N. Flayderman and Co., Inc.All metal parts have nice dark brown untouched patina. Brass breech with nice untouched patina. Stock has been expertly repaired in the wrist where it was cracked in three places. This work was expertly done that one cannot see and the patina on the stock was matched perfectly. This is a very rare Confederate rifle and in extremely fine condition.Condition
