Mississippi US Model 1841 Percussion

The Mississippi U.S. Model 1841 .58-Cal. Percussion Rifle was the first percussionignition long gun ordered by the U.S. military to replace obsolete flintlock firearms. It became known as the “Mississippi Rifle” during the Mexican-American War when a volunteer regiment from Mississippi under the command of Jefferson Davis, future President of the Confederacy, used the guns at the Battle of Buena Vista to turn the tide of battle in favor of the Americans. Originally a .54-cal. rifle, production was changed to .58 cal. in 1855 so it could shoot Minié ball projectiles. Hardwood stock. Three-groove rifling with 1:72" rate of twist. Uses .577-dia. Minie balls. <strong>Right hand only.</strong>
