Whitney US Model 1841 Mississippi Black Powder Rifle 54 Cal

The M1841 Mississippi rifle is a muzzle-loading percussion rifle used in the Mexican
American War and the American Civil War.

This rifle is a Contract Rifle dated 1852 in working condition - at 173 Years Old it is in
excellant condition !!

The 33 inch barrel is held to the wood stock with 2 hevay brass bands - There is
the initail TD inset into wood on left side of rear stock.

Bluing on metal surfaces is long gone and patina is a nice even color throughout.
The only stamp on the barrel is a US over JPC on top left side and what appears
to be a V 2. On left side rear there is also a very faint what looks like the word STEEL

Side Lock has E Whitney over JB in front of hammer and N Haven 1852 behind
hammer (see pictures)

Stock is 2 peice and in fine condition with little marks and no cracks .. Brass Patch Box and Butt Plate - Plate
has US stamped ontop. There is some sort of marking on left side of wood but very
hard to decipher.. see second last picture.
This may be the final inspection mark from factory - a WAT in oval..

The front sight is a small leaf half circle and the rear sight is missing.

Gun appears to function as it should. ALL ORIGINAL COMPLETE WITH TAMPING ROD
