smith carbine
Hello, have a few questions that I need help on.I pick up a nice smith carbine pat. date 1857 serial numbered 3377.I tried looking up the number but found ones before it and after on the research site. Is there any way to pin point actual cavalry reg. that it was issued to? Would there be records for just the regiments,as it also has initials carved into the stock I would like to trace. Also what is the price range for a low numbered carbine in very good condition. Has minor wood gouge, and missing 1 screw. Barrel clean and has saddle ring. Thank you Rose

Nicest one I have seen. A few years back a nice went for +2000 with 40 bidders. Google smith carbine values. 0 -
Flayderman lists $3000 value for Excellent Condition. 0 -

I agree with charlie! Looks like it came out of a museum. Makes you wonder where it's been stashed for the last 145+ years? Personally I would be a lot happier knowing it's provenance, before springing thousands to buy it. 0
