F41.  1862 DATES ENFIELD MUSKET and BOWIE  with SAME SOLDIER'S INITALS AND 24th CORPS BADGE: This is a great looking musket!  It is an Enfield with the date 1862 on the lock plate.  The musket has a great patina and the barrel and other metal part have matching patina.  The ram-rod is original.  Also, the corrrect bayonet is with it.  I suspect this musket started with a Confederate soldier and his initials "PT" are on the left side of the stock as well as two "X's.  It looks like the musket became a war trophy of a Union soldier in the 24th Infantry Corps., or the soldier carves his sweethhearts initial between a heart.  On the right side of the stock and a maple inlay of the 24th Corps badge design (a heart) flanked by the soldier's initial "E   V." The original bayonet has matching patina and the serial number"5".  The bowie is arsenal made and in outstanding condition.  The quillon is gone, but it is very tight.  The overall length is 18 1/2" with a 13 1/2" by 1 7/8" wide blade.  The wood is American black walnut and the intials "PT" are carved in the left side.  The blade is made a very high quality steel  and is a great clip-point design.  I do not know the maker, but it is not blacksmith made.  Verbal history is that the initial PT belong to a P. Tindall either South or North Carolina, or the state of New York.  Futher research pending. $3750.00

F54.  MUSKET, IDENTIFIED TO PENNSYLVANIA SOLDIER, 195th INFANTRY:   This musket is very unique in that it was made by E. Whitney and is so marked on the side plate.  The side plate is the high side design and is void of any date.  The wood is in great shape with only a small stress fracture on the left side of the barrel near the base, but no break.  The trigger is complete with all blades, and the only thing missing is the lower sling swivel.  In the butt is carves G. (a hatchet) LAUSCH.  There is only one match for this name in the Civil War data base, that being George Lausch and he was a private in the 195th  Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry Regiments.   On the opposite side of the butt is carved a Star design with the initials “MP.”  These markings I have not identified.  Lausch enlisted in K. Company and later transferred to C Company and mustered out June 21, 1865.  The 195th Pa. served in Virginia performing guard duty on many of the fords of the Shenandoah as well as other security duties.   With the musket comes a binder with historical information on the unit and Private Lausch  $1475.00.

F42.  CONVERSION MUSKET, IDENTIFIED TO GETTSYBURG SOLDIER:  This is a conversion musket identified as belong to Private William English.  He served in the 6th Pennsylvania Infantry, the 39th Pennsylvania Infantry at Gettysburg, and with the 7th Pennsylvania Cavalry in Tennessee.  He came from Schuylkill County, Pa and was a member of the Lewellyn Rifles.  His name pops up often while researching the history of these units, and he is listed on their rolls.  Included with the musket are copies of military records and pension records.  The musket is an 1816 Conversion in original attic condition.  The stock is solid with no problems.  There are several clear Cartouche stamps, and "US" inspection markings.  The lock is marked Springfield and dated 1835.  The patina on the metal is the same plum brown.  The numbers "4" and "17" are stamped on opposite sides of the stock. On the underside is carved the soldiers information:  "W English"  "Donaldson" "Schuylkill"   Research has already yielded much information and I suspect more can be found.  $2500.00  

F49.  REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY REVOLVER:  This is a Remington New Model Army revolver.  It is a 44Cal. percussion six shot revolver with an eight inch barrel. The action is very good and  cycles fine. Also, all the nipples are original and in great condition.  The original finish has worn to a nice even gray patina.  It has matching serial number 94400 on the barrel and under the grip, and inspection marking "D" on the gun in several places.  The wood grips are very nice.  $1095.00 HOLD

F50.  REMINGTON  NAVY REVOLVER:  This Remington Navy revolver in 36 caliber.   It has a deep brown patina, and is in proper working order.  The action  is tight and the cylinder cycles properly.  It has matching serial number 25461 on the barrel and under the grip.  The grips are original to the gun.  $975.00

F57.  COLT M1849 POCKET PISTOL & BULLET MOLD:  This is a Colt Model 1849 pocket pistol with a 4” barrel.  This is the way I like to find these pistols!   It has a great even brown patina with no rust or pitting.  The gun has  all matching serial numbers (240990) to include the wedge and the cylinder, but not the barrel.  The serial number falls within the Civil War period 1863-1864. The cylinder is the 6-round version and does not appear to have any scene on it. It also has each chamber numbered on the top so one can see when it is being fired and to know how many rounds are left.  It has all the original screws and the action is tight.  The barrel is marked “ ADDRESS COL. SAML COLT NEW-YORK AMERICA”.   The front site is worn down.  This pistol comes with its original 31 Cal. Bullet mold.   $975.00
