This is a very good condition, well fit C.S. Altemen Harpers Ferry model 1855 rifle musket with long range rear sight, fitted with 1864 dated Richmond lock that still has case hardened finish. The accompanying letter of authenticity states that this was Confederate alteration and it makes sense as the stock has no US inspection and Richmond lock is perfectly fitted. UNATTACHED ACCESSORIES: letter of authenticity "Museum of Our Southern Heritage", 2005. CONDITION: very good to fine overall for a Confederate associated long arm. 40" barrel retains crisp rifling and correct Harpers Ferry proofs and barrel date 1858 which last two digits are very weak, US" surcharged buttplate. The lock is exceptional with crisp "C.S. /RICHMOND" and "1864". The stock has rich hand worn patina, hairline crack at wrist unaffecting the overall aesthetic. Mechanics are crisp, rifled bore is bright. The accompanying heavy canvas & leather sling is sound and fine overall. PROVENANCE: Lifelong collection of Richard A. Baumann. (01-26016/JS). ANTIQUE. $4,000-8,000.
