An Antique Civil War US military contract model 1816 Flintlock musket made by “ASA WATERS”, 1824. 42", .69 caliber barrel struck with US Proof marks on the upper breech (remnants can be seen if one looks hard enough). All steel furniture is pitted (some areas worse than others). The lock is maker marked "ASA WATERS", "1824" (again, remnants can be seen if one looks hard enough). The stock is stamped "12" just behind the rear lock screw, is solid with heavy scratches,dings and staining from handling. In good mechanical working order.
NOTE; The musket has been re-converted from percussion back to flintlock. The work is very good and hard to tell.
