11/3/23 – This is an excellent example of a Poultney & Trimble Smith’s Carbine from the Civil War era. The Smith Carbine was a 0.50 caliber breech-loading rifle patented by Gilbert Smith on June 23, 1857 and successfully completed the military trials of the late 1850s. It was used by various cavalry units during the American Civil War. The Smith Carbine was unique in that it broke apart in the middle for loading and it used rubber cartridges which sealed the gases in the breech. Poultney & Trimble out of Baltimore was the name of the distributor for the manufacturers of these rifles. This one retained about 95% of its original finish with some thinning and light brown patina on the barrel band and very light freckling on most of the metal parts. Very nice wood stock with only minor scratches and a crisp military inspection stamp. Mint bore. No FFL required.
