Original U.S. Civil War Model 1841 Mississippi Rifle by E. Remington & Sons of Herkimer in Original .54 Caliber with Saber Bayonet Lug, 1851 Lock and 1849 Barrel
type: Product
description: Original Item: Only One Available. This is an original U.S. Model 1841 Mississippi percussion rifle manufactured by E. Remington & Sons of Herkimer, New York, retaining its original .54 caliber bore with the correct seven groove rifling. The lock is dated 1851, while the barrel tang retains a partial 1849 date.

This example retains an approximately .54 caliber bore, measuring roughly .55" to .56" by micrometer, with the rifling showing greater wear toward the muzzle. The barrel retains seven groove rifling, consistent with the original .54 caliber configuration. No evidence of a later .58 caliber rebore was observed. A saber bayonet lug has been added to the right side of the barrel, representing the primary visible modification from it…
