Here is my latest purchase. It is a model 1816 musket that was converted to percussion cap. It was made in 1830 and is all original with no replacement parts. The gun has matching production years of 1830. This gun is one of my best pieces in my collection. I traded 145 civil war buttons for a cartridge box, a belt buckle on the belt ( 1 hook baby belt plate small size model 1839), a remington pistol bullet mold and this rifle. It was a pretty good deal I think
