U.S. Springfield Armory Model 1816 Hewes and Phillips Percussion Conversion Musket

The Model 1816 Musket was the primary infantry long arm during the Mexican War. This musket was coverted to percussion by Hewes and Phillips of Newark, New Jersey e. 1861-62. It has the bolster type percussion conversion, fixed blade front sight and three leaf rear sight (one leaf is broken). The lock plate is marked "SPRING / FIELD / 1832" vertically behind the percussion hammer and the "eagle / shield / U.S." marking in front of the hammer. The stock is the correct full length military version with no visible markings. The side of the bolster is marked "H&P". "US" marked on the buttplate tang, "S" marked side plate and "DP" marked ahead of the trigger guard with "P / eagle head" proofs on the left side of the barrel and "1862" on top. It has a replacement iron trumpet head ramrod. A good example of a Civil War percussion conversion musket.

ConditionFine. All metal surfaces have a dark crisp brown patina. The trigger guard sling swivel is broken. The otherwise fine walnut stock has a repair on the left stock flat, and some minor dings, dents and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
