Hello All, Anybody have any information on the "Todd" Musket?
Here is what I know:
George H. Todd, (who also made revolvers in Texas), manufactured muskets in small numbers at Montgomery, Al. in 1864. One known example is a Mdl 1861 Springfield copy. Ramrod and barrel believed to be U.S. made captures. All other parts are brass w/lockplate stamped "Geo. H. Todd, Montgomery, Ala. C.S.A. 1864".(Internal lock parts ukn.).
I would like to know:
How many known to have been made?
How was lock marked?
Any other details,stock, bands, etc.....?
Many Thanks,
