I have recently come into possession of a genuine 1863 Springfield rifled musket, type 2.
Before doing anything to or with this rifle I would like to become familiar with it's details.
Has anyone written a book detailing the parts, variations, manufacturing etc.. on this rifle?
How about a reproduced copy of "Rules for Management" of same?
I would very much appreciate it if someone could steer me in the right direction.
Thanks.
