PALMETTO RIFLED-MUSKET WITH BAYONET.

PALMETTO RIFLED-MUSKET WITH BAYONET. These muskets were part of a State of South Carolina contract, William Glaze provided the State of South Carolina with muskets, rifles, pistols, and sabers. This is one of the model 1842 muskets. This musket conforms with other known Palmetto muskets in every regard, and this gun has all the markings you would expect to see, including lock markings as pictured, “SC” on bbl tang, and buttplate, “WG & C” stamped on the backside of bbl. William Graze, at the beginning of the Civil War, rifled some of these smooth bore muskets and this is such an example. The rear sight is missing, however rifling is still easily seen. This is an example of an all orig complete and authentic, secondary Confederate arm that saw hard service by South Carolina forces in the Confederacy. PROVENANCE: Dr. Andrew Kelley Collection. CONDITION: Metal, both iron and brass have all been polished and cleaned. Surfaces have a dull etched look with exception of lock which is untouched with clear, bright markings. The “SC” surcharge on bbl tang is present but just barely discernible. There is no “SC” surcharge visible on buttplate which is highly pitted and cleaned. The accompanying bayonet for an 1816 musket is surcharged “US” over “SC” but is not a South Carolina product, but accompanies gun and fits it for display. Bayonet is gray overall with heavy pitting under cleaning. Stock is sound and solid with numerous scuffs, dents and scratches. Gun appears all orig with exception of restored front sling swivel. 4-48863 JS22 (3,000-5,000)
