Rocky Mountain Hawken
 .54 Caliber Percussion Rifle with Walnut Stock

The Hawken is a symbol of the period that saw the passage from the long and heavy small caliber Pennsylvania rifles to more practical and powerful Plains rifles, and the definite abandoning of the flintlock for the far more modern percussion system. The strong barrel and the larger caliber (rarely smaller than .50), enabled hits on any target with surprising accuracy as well as a powerful amount of energy. This rifle soon became the inseparable friend of the lonely Mountain men, and the most famous explorers in the new territories of the American continent. The success of this gun has to be attributed to Jacob and Samuel Hawken, brothers, who starting from about 1840, produced the gun in their gunsmith shop in Saint Louis, Missouri. 7 groove barrel obtained by broaching, rust brown color finish and steel metal parts. Barrel length is 32 5/16", Weight is 9.7 lbs.

1763 Léger (1766) Charleville
.69 Caliber Flintlock Musket

In 1763 France adopted a new model infantry weapon, much stronger than the previous models, to answer the accelerated fighting during the War of the Seven Years which ended that same year. The new musket however appeared soon to be too heavy and after only three years it was replaced by its modified version, known as the Model 1766, projected by M. de Montbeillard, Inspector of Saint Etienne Manufacture. The new model appeared to be very strong and reliable in spite of being remarkably lightened. More than 150,000 Model 1766 muskets were manufactured until 1770, when it was replaced by the Model 1770/71. When America declared independence a few short years later, France had large stores of the retired 1766 muskets with which to supply the American Army. This musket is produced in .69 caliber, with a walnut stock. Weight: 9.47 lbs.

1798 Austrian
.69 Caliber Flintlock Musket

On 1792 Austria was involved in the Wars of Revolution and of the Empire; the War Ministry in Vienna had to face a new way to fight the Revolution corps, based on the need to quickly move the troops and on new infantry tactics.

On the 26th of July 1798 came the new model, that even if inspired by the French model, has other typical Austrian features, like the voluminous front band, the ramrod with a new profile and the long bayonet with four edges.

A quantity of about 23,500 of these muskets, with rifled barrels, was shipped to Messina in August 1860 to be distributed to the “1000 followers of Garibaldi” during the famous “1000's expedition”, but probably only half had been distributed.
