69 Caliber, 42" rifled barrel with a fine, bright bore having some light pitting towards the muzzle. The barrel of this musket has a smooth, dark overall patina without the usual pitting around the nipple and bolster. The barrel tang is marked, "1858" and the lock is marked, "REMINGTON'S/ILION, N.Y./1858/U.S." behind. The lock and Maynard primer mechanism function flawlessly. The stock has an added varnish finish over numerous small handling marks and bruises with a still visible cartouche opposite. This is a very good plus Remington Conversion overall.
