This 1858 dated rifle has the standard markings and features of the 47,115 Model 1855 rifles manufactured by the Springfield Armory between 1857 and 1861. The Model 1855 was one of the main rifles of the Civil War.

Fair. The rifle has primarily a mottled gray patina with some bright surfaces, extensive patches of deep pitting, and several minor marks and scratches. The stock is fair as heavily sanded and re-oiled and has several small slivers and chips absent and some minor marks. The action is fine. The markings, aside from the barrel date, are clear.
