Springfield 1795
A new line of inert guns (blank firing guns) reproductions of the Napoleon period, before 1870, flintlock.
This new line has been made for those countries, like Russia, where the use of working guns during historical re-enactment events, either shotguns, rifles and pistols, is subject to strict rules or forbidden by law.
Inspired by the Charleville Mod.1763 musket, it was the first military gun produced in the arsenal of Springfield, Massachusetts. The War Ministry secretary, Timothy Pickering, suggested the French musket to start production with, such to use some of the parts stocked in the Springfield’s warehouses since 1794 assigned as deposits and gunsmithing for the guns repairs. The Model 1795 was produced in about 85,000 units until 1814.
Our reproduction faithfully copy an original manufactured between 1799 and 1802; all the furniture are made of steel and the stock is made of walnut.
