1862 Springfield

To those near to or willing to make the drive to near Fort Worth.

On or about 10/25/19 there will be an 1862 58 Springfield smoothie with bayonet going for sale in Boyd, TX. I have had it in my hands. IMO for its age it is in very good shape.

The only hitch is they will not post pix or ship. The purchaser has to view and pay at the site.

I was thrilled just be liked enough that they allowed me to see and hold it. If I had the funds I would snatch this piece of history up in a heartbeat.

If you are interested in going to look at it PM me and when I'm sure it is available I'll provide a phone number.

I am not involved in this sale other than to pass this info on.

Well I'm not sure about that. I'm not the seller nor do I have any part in it. I just thought possibly some one here might be interested. I honestly don't think they will be able to sell it for what they claim they are going to ask. And I'm not going to get into discussion about that either. Have to understand. I don't mind providing for opportunity but it's no skin off my nose if it sells. Not that I wouldn't buy it myself if I could. That's just a matter of having it for history sake.

I understand.
To comply with the forum rules a price should be included in the ad and that it's being offered for local sale only in Boyd, Texas.

I'm not the seller. I'm only providing info should someone be interested. I have nothing to do with it other than seeing and holding it. This is why I did not put it in the for sale forum. Feel free to delete. At this point I do not care to post possible availability of even a fly swatter. I never did and especially now could not care less if anyone here is interested. It is no skin off my nose.
