Description
Here's a M1816 smoothbore musket made by R. & J. D. Johnson of Middletown, Connecticut. It is estimated that this company manufactured only 600 of these weapons making this a considerably rare piece. This original M1816 reconversion is in good condition with a very nice stock and all original furniture with the exception of a reproduction ram rod.
The lock is nicely stamped with very crisp markings and salt and pepper pitting. The cock, frizzen, frizzen spring, and pan are reproductions which were aged perfectly to match the lock. The cock holds solid on both full and half cock and the frizzen spring is nice and crisp.
The barrel was very neatly re-converted back to flint; with minimal evidence of the original welded-in nipple bolster. The bore is fair with some scattered rust and pitting.
The stock is nice with crisp edges and no chips, cracks or burnout. The original inspector's cartouches are still very visible on the lock panel.
The furniture is all original except for the aforementioned reproduction ram rod.
