Description

I bought this because it was an amazing saddle ring carbine (SRC). A Cavalry weapon. These are far rarer than those Infantry, longer, India pattern Brown Bess muskets (other listings ) and so these cost far more. Condition is as you can see. A few old borer holes, fairly typical. You could work on these. In UK, they keep muskets, ‘in the white’, so that means bright metal, not browning/blueing. Keep it, or change the tone. Up to You… but I like them with that old English brown common at Holts Auctions. Unmarked lock, or price would’ve been higher. Probably only one in NZ ? I Bought it on impulse, to fill in the crate beside my main big 5 bore, P1738 Rampart gun. I’m sure, long term, it’s the Best thing to collect, as all the World is changing to older guns without paperwork. Since Ukraine, there’s no weapons sea shipping available. Even these antique weapons. Shipped at cost in NZ, or come visit and maybe, see how to fire a genuine old cannon (not for sale). Other… Colt, Snider, Sword, leopard, Also… Colt Revolver, Sword, Flintlock, Percussion.

  • Does the cannon for sell? a*********r (29) • 10:25 pm, Thu, 22 May No, I’ll keep the 1753 Armstrong 6 pounder. Similar to Capt Cooks 4lb at Te Papa. Last year I sold a 1780 Bloomfield. ashleyclint (270) • Thursday, 22 May 2025
  • I like to shoot a Half Post from that cannon. We put on a show. And I use old Blasting Powder which has lots of Smoke and Flame, and Noise, but very little pressure to damage the old girl. Seller comment Friday, 23 May 2025
