    Default Brass Mounted 1855 "Rifle" fs

    This is a custom built target grade "Rifle".
    I built this rifle using a Robert Hoyt barrel. The rate of twist is 1 turn in 66 inches and a minimum bore dia. of .576.
    The Lock is new made and comes with all the proper internal workings for the functional Maynard priming system. Lock is marked Harpers Ferry and dated 1857 (first production year for the M-1855's)
    This is the early all brass furniture (brass mounted) variant. Long range (500 yard base) rear sight tall front sight saber bayonet lug. Brass patch box and long nose cap. Comes with brass headed tompion, leather sling and N-SSA approval card
    $1,850.00 plus shipping and insurance.

    This custom built M-1855 "Rifle" (two bander) deserves a Bump.
    Everything on this firearm is repro except for internal lock parts.
    Thank you,
