What’s Included
- Euroarms of America Model 1841 “Mississippi” .58 caliber rifle (as described)
The Euroarms import stamp and Italian proof marks confirm the rifle’s origin and modern manufacture standards, giving buyers confidence in material quality and safety.
A 33-inch steel barrel transitions from octagon to round and is rifled at a slow 1:72 right-hand twist, ideal for traditional patched round ball loads. The browned/blued finish contrasts with the brass butt-plate, trigger guard, bands, nose cap, and hinged patch box for an authentic 19th-century appearance.
The external percussion hammer drives a single-shot action, while a straight-grip, full-length walnut stock with an oil finish offers a period-correct feel. Case-colored steel furniture on the lock and receiver adds both durability and striking visual appeal.
Iron sights consist of a fixed blade front and an adjustable leaf rear, mirroring the originals and providing practical elevation adjustment for competitive shooting or historical demonstrations.
