Description from HiBid
U.S. Model 1863 Rifled Musket — S. Norris & W.T. Clement Contract “For Massachusetts” — .58 Caliber Percussion — Antique Civil War Relic
One of Only 13,000 Made — A Rare Massachusetts State Contract Arm
Offered here is a genuine and scarce Civil War-era rifled musket bearing the highly desirable state contract markings: S.N. & W.T.C. / FOR / MASSACHUSETTS, dated 1863 on the lockplate, with the American eagle and U.S. stamped ahead of the hammer.
This musket is a product of the Samuel Norris and W.T. Clement factory of Springfield, Massachusetts, produced under direct contract with the State of Massachusetts. In total, only approximately 13,000 of these muskets were produced from 1863 to 1864 — making them significantly rarer than standard U.S. Springfield production arms.
