1864-Dated Springfield Model 1861 Musket – Barn Find Condition
This is an original Springfield Model 1861 rifled musket, dated 1864, and manufactured during the height of the American Civil War. It is in barn find condition, showing age-appropriate wear, heavy patina, and signs of long-term storage. The stock has an old break that was repaired at some point in its history. Despite its condition, the lock plate remains in good shape with clear 1864 markings, and the hammer still holds at both half and full cock. While not suitable for firing, it retains strong historical appeal and would make a striking wall hanger or restoration candidate. A genuine piece of Civil War history with plenty of character.
