Description

This was made for Gallager by Richardson & Overman. They were issued to the 2^nd, 3^rd, 4^th and 6^th Ohio, the 13^th Tennessee and 3^rd West Virginia. The iron butt compartment still has the original nipple in it. The mechanical function is very good, crisp and tight. The bore is very good bright and shiny with only the smallest amount of corrosion. This is a 50 caliber percussion with a 22 ¼” barrel and the S.N. 14250. The lock plate still shows some case colors and the front of the receiver has only small traces of case colors.
