An 1861 Springfield 3- band. Bore size .5815, for Skirmishing you would need a size .582 mold , then size down to .580 liberalized. It has a large front sight for skirmishing and a peep sight for the rear. No maker’s name, very clean. Also would be good for reenacting after either cutting notch in bayonet to allow for tall front sight. A reenactor could just radius down front sight to look more original to fit original Bayonet. Had it priced at $1,000, but seller would let it go for $900 NOW $700. Any help would be appreciated. You’d be helping a widow of a fallen Skirmisher. Will bring to Bristol unless it sells before or a verbal commitment.  Pictures are HERE.
