Weapons of the Civil War
All weapons listed on this webpage are strictly manufactured before 1898, and are considered unsafe for actual use. These are antique collectible weapons of the Civil War (most are pre 1865, unless I state otherwise) and actual firing of these weapons is not recommended for any purpose whatsoever! Because these are all "pre 1898" weapons, no licenses are required for ownership, but common sense and good judgment are real good things to have.
W0666 English Enfield percussion
musket, Tower 1861, .577 cal

The English made Enfields were used by both sides during the
Civil War. Lock is marked with a crown behind the hammer, and "1861 /
