Springfield 1864 / 1866 Allin Alteration, Type 2. + bayonet.

Springfield 1864 / 1866 Allin Alteration, Type 2. This Springfield began life as an American Civil War muzzleloading .58 caliber musket. Immediately after the ACW the government began altering these muskets into breech loading models. This is the second version had the barrel sleeved down to a smaller caliber, which was the .50-70 center fire cartridge.
