There are more variations in the U.S. 1795 Muskets than any other weapon in our history. When you add the contract muskets of 1794 and 1798 it is almost overwhelming to understand. To help with this we highly recommend George Moller's book "American Military Shoulder Arms, Volume 2" for anyone working with these early U.S. muskets. It is the finest work out with a fantastic amount of research information and photographs to show all known variations of all U.S. flint muskets and rifles. We consider this book a must. We are using his terminology of types to make the parts we have available easier to understand. |

We stock many items, but each item is custom cast or made by us to the exact specifications of the originals parts, we have copied. Due to the investment casting process which we use there are sometimes delays due to this process which in turn requires patience from our customers, the average delivery time on our parts is between 60 and 90 days, if the parts you order are not in stock. We assure you that the quality of our parts is well worth any wait, as many of the items we make have never been offered by anyone before. If you are serious about the authenticity of your weapon then the time will be a small price to pay. Many of the pictures shown on this web site are of original pieces. We do not sell any original pieces on this web site only reproduction's of the original parts we have copied. If the item description does not say assembled then you are buying the castings of that particular item.
