VERY FINE CIVIL WAR MODEL 1864 BURNSIDE SADDLE RING CARBINE
01-26027
Cal. 54
S# 16863
39″ overall, 21″ barrel, two position rear leaf sight, tall blued steel pinched blade front sight. Conforms to other Civil War carbines of this pattern. This carbine utilized the unique Ambrose Burnside designed “ice cream cone” shaped brass percussion cartridge. This is the standard Model 1864 marked “BURNSIDE PATENT / MODEL OF 1864” on breech & “BURNSIDE RIFLE CO / PROVIDENCE RI” on back action lock. Most of these guns in this serial range were issued to midwestern cavalry units. This very fine survivor saw little use with just minor handling marks.
STATUS: ANTIQUE
