serial #15366, .54 cal, 21'' barrel with a mostly bright good bore showing some scattered light oxidation and a patch of moderate oxidation and old pitting for about 2'' at the muzzle, the remaining areas with strong rifling. The barrel shows generous remnant streaks of original blue toning overall to a pleasant deep gray-brown patina with some overall old mild oxidation. The action also retains generous wisps of vibrant case-hardened colors in the protected areas toning to a mix of gray-brown and silvery gray case-hardened patina. The breechblock and lever retain perhaps 60-70% original bright blue and all proper markings remain mostly strong throughout. The smooth walnut buttstock and forend remain in very good condition showing some older added varnish with scattered old abrasions and dings, the left side of the wrist with remnants of two inspector cartouches. All proper hardware is intact, the serialized parts are matching and the lock seems to function well mechanically. A very respectable Burnside carbine for the Civil War Collector. (13B11738-RC15) {ANTIQUE} [John Micavich Collection] (1200/1800)
