Rare artillery model of the M1847 Musketoon. The 1847 is the carbine version of the m1841 Mississippi rifles. A .69 caliber smooth bore, the rifle had 3 variations, calvary, artillery, and sapper. Only a handful of all variations were made, with the calvary model being the most common. This particular one was made in the second year of production in 1848 by Springfield arsenal. It is unfortunately missing the og ramrod, which was a cut down steel one from the 1841 version.
