Dusty Morningwood Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 SOLD! NOTE: Not counting barrel and stock, there is over $1000 worth of parts in this gun, per the Lodgewood webpage. This is an overall nice 1861 Springfield two band rifled musket with a mixture of original and repro parts. First, the original parts. VP Eagle stamped 33" barrel with an excellent mirror bore, E. ROBINSON NEW YORK 1864 dated lock, US marked buttplate (could use better fitting), trigger guard, barrel bands, and ramrod. The repro parts are stock, with some minor bumps, and rear sight. The perfect reenactor gun for those 1864-65 battles! $650 + Shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trigger Mike Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 A two band is also better because one day while hunting with a 3 band Springfield a deer came out much closer than anticipated and saw the super long barrel move and took off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are very popular. I shoot a 1858 Parker-Hale 2 band rifle in the N-SSA. I also have an 1863 Springfield rifle that appears to have been put together after the War, probably for one of the numerous military schools that were common back then.
