Discussion: Favorite CW Firearm

[SoArk]

Tom,

This offer is only good until noon tomorrow. I'll give you $53.71 for all three! Why til noon? Cause I'll have to buy lunch at that time, and my offer will go down!

No really, Those are Awesome, Tom.... Awesome!

Paul Rice has a single shot Allen Percussion for sale on his site at the moment, and I wish I could get it. I don't have the type of disposable income that I'd wish to have..... but, some day!

I do appreciate you sharing the pictures of those you have in your collection.

Take care,

Kim

Tom H.,
That's one pretty musket.
Wish it could talk.
I have a nice Austrian & couple of "Volunteer" muskets( I like them because they very much resemble the Whitworth)

I wish i could get into buying CW guns but....one day soon. I do like the Carbines a lot...mainly due to Cavalry usage. I really like the Sharps Breech Loading 4 shot Pepperbox. That is a wild pistol.
Hey Tom.....Harry Ridgeway (Relicman) has a bunch of guns up for sale. I think he just put them up for sale about 2 - 3 weeks ago.

Several of you mention the prohibitive costs of collecting CW weapons. Can anyone recommend any type of CW weapon that ISN'T (yet) so?

Hi,

Newbie here! I like the P/53 "Enfield" because of the variety between manufacturers, used by both sides, etc. If you have a CW-era P/53 Enfield (or other patterns like rifles or carbines as well), I'd like to hear from you and get a description, and add it to a database if you're willing.

Best regards,
Bob

One of my favorites would have tobe the Lemat revolver, .42caliber(with 18-gauge shotgun barrel ) A very unique gun for desperate times

[Capt Coxetter]

Very popular with the cavalry. Great gun, as long as a horse was carrying it around for you!
