Title: Russian infantry rifle, model 1845
Post by: Gatling on December 06, 2011, 10:49:34 AM
Hello, you find these guns?

to begin with, how to put pictures in a forum? through which resource?

About me: I restores Russian rifles from the period 1808 to 1855. Your forum I liked, I think it will be interesting to see similar patterns of muskets.

I use a translator, so do not be surprised if something goes wrong.

In this topic I want to put photos Reconstruction Russian infantry rifle in 1845, a veteran of the Crimean War of 1853-56 year. And consider this gun

Thank you! Acquired the remnants of the bed and the barrel of the gun itself, modeli.1845 Then took the other details and to model.1845 novodelnoe bed.

Barrel Length overall: 112.5 cm length of the barrel without liner: 106.5 cm diameter: 19mm. There is mounting a bayonet. 1.5 cm apparently sawed off.

Year: 1852 Tula, serviceable on the trigger number # 23 240.

The very gun was hunting, from Siberia, from his hit game and hunted beast, standing in service before the Russian army, these details are interesting because of the fact that the barrel was not shortened, that the hunters always do.

To assemble the gun, had to look all over Russia, from Siberia to the gun, I live in the Urals, the tree is done in central Russia, part of the profits from the Crimea, Sevastopol, where the Crimean War took place, for me it's a big mystery, collecting parts for five years. Buy found in the ground, all over Russia. On our forums for few experts on these things, and they are very rare. I hope that will appreciate them.

Pay attention to the gun: the Russian infantry rifle, not preserved in the population in its original form, they have changed the needs of hunting, or destroyed, modified, like I said, short barrel, very few of them survived.

These weapons can be delivered in America during the Civil War, maybe you have them on sale, can anyone see this?

Very sorry, the translator is not working .... shudder to think how it reads ...It is clear that I write, or not?

It reads reasonably well, I think we are getting what you mean.

Yes, recent research has found that indeed some Russian arms were imported to America during our Civil War of 1861 - 1865, I was unaware of this but it is documented. There were not many and they did not come directly from Russia, it appears that they were captured weapons from the Crimean War and may have come from either England or France. It appears that they all were imported by the U.S. Government for use by Union (Northern) forces, there are no reports of any coming in for Southern use. All of that being said, very few have been seen on the collector's market in this country. Yours looks quite good, you did well with the restoration..

Quite a few years ago I had a brass mounted Tula-made flint musket that was in almost unissued condition. If I remember the date on the lock correctly, it was 1834. It was a close copy of a French pattern. I've seen one other, similar musket, clearly used by indians in the Pacific Northwest. I always thought the near new one I had must have been a Crimean War trophy - perhaps collected after the fall of Sebastopol. Russian guns do turn up in England... I also was offered (a long time ago) a Russian Brunswick rifle with a long inscription on the patchbox relating to it being taken by the British Naval expedition to the Aland Islands in 1854.

Hi Gatling,
The Rifle Shoppe (www.therifleshoppe.com) carries reproduction parts for the Russian model 1845 percussion musket.  Go to their website and click on "Russian arms" to see the selection of parts.  A word of warning:  they are very, very slow to fill orders but perhaps if you are not in a hurry, they may be able to fill the voids where you cannot find original parts.  I am also assuming it is not difficult to ship items between the United States and Russia.

Thank you all for participating!

And photos you no longer have? I guess the Indians are richly decorated with #rifle# ...
During the Crimean War, the soldiers at that time were even flintlocks.

A useful resource is a pity that we do not do this ... We've got all banned ..

I'm taking parts of Ukraine, Sevastopol, Kiev. Prices for items from $ 100 trying to collect on the year and the plant.

I have only ordered from the Rifle Shoppe once and that was for left and right flint lock parts and it took nine months to get them. The story I got was that they inject their own waxes and then haul them a very long distance to a foundry. I don't know what they are now doing.
I was once stalled on a Schuetzen lock for two years because I over turned a can of acetone on the bench and it wiped out the address on the envelope the order came in. I have called them for items like a plate and hammer for a percussion Rigby lock but they never had any on the shelf.

Not the topic: Did you hear about the Cossack guns? Models 1832 and 1845? These things are very rare ... I've seen in the United States is one such ... in the collection. We save only in museums, I gathered it details))

Later will be the topic

And yet, there are so many interesting things ... I wanted to ask, but there are collectors of parts on the gun? And who is interested in this?

Soon will build on the theme of Russian infantry rifle model 1808 he fought against Napoleon, too, details ...

Pardon me for being a bit skeptical.  I have an 1847 Mle de Mutzig French musket.  Every part that has been shown here is an "exact duplicate" of the parts on my musket, right down to the screws.

So, did the Tula Arsenal manufacture exact duplicates of French arms for their use, or did they purchase guns from France.  Something isn't right here.  Perhaps this was a French gun brought home from the Crimean War.

I do not remember very well the Soviet Union, I grew up after the collapse of the Soviets. My father was a sailor, and was in Canada, told me many interesting things.

I'm not entirely a collector, I do live in history, do I deal in 1812 costumes of their culture Respublkiki Bashkortostan. I am far from politics, I do not iteresno)) We are seriously exploring the city, the culture of American Indians. Study their way of life, inner peace, faith, doing demonstrations, dancing, traditional dwellings made ​​of Indians. Show and tell the children. Actively advocate for meripriyatiyah city, all of these clubs began their movement in the 1970s

The North American Indians, there is a very popular topic with our indigenous people in Bashkiria, a very similar history with the Indians. We are actively studying the history of the United States do living history since the civil wars

Pardon me for being a bit skeptical.  I have an 1847 Mle de Mutzig French musket.  Every part that has been shown here is an "exact duplicate" of the parts on my musket, right down to the screws.

So, did the Tula Arsenal manufacture exact duplicates of French arms for their use, or did they purchase guns from France.  Something isn't right here.  Perhaps this was a French gun brought home from the Crimean War.

Evolution of the French Military lock.
http://home.comcast.net/~illinewek/faqs/french.htm

We did not come up with something new, and were made as the French Russian rifle model 1808 is similar to the French model of 1777 and here made ​​from French guns But the difference between the guns are, and it is not a small Model 1845 also has been copied from the French guns I know that the American Enfild, also made ​​of the French model of 1777


In Russia, the infantry rifle, bought in England before the War of 1812, even during the War of 1812 used the captured guns. Then the three arms factory made rifles, Tula, and Izhevsk Sestroretsky. After 1812 infantry rifle made ​​in Russia. Russia only bought rifled gun, it was the Belgian guns. The gun was called "lyutihskie"  Even Russia ordered a gun to the Cossacks, also in Belgium called gun "Chernolihova" model in 1859

Russia did not buy guns from France

The Bashkirs were weapons of bows.
The story is very long and interesting, I will say that the French call Bashkir "Northern Cupids"

Russia won the Bashkirs in the 16th century, the Bashkirs and then fought on the Russian side, Bashkirs often raised their rebellion, Bashkir history is similar to the history of North American Indians.

http://home.comcast.net/~illinewek/faqs/french.htm

T.O.F., you are correct in noticing the similarities but, as Gatling said, the Russians copied the French military firearms very closely in their arsenals of Ishevsk, Sestroyetsk, and Tula as well as at, I believe, Moscow but I may be wrong about the latter.  What he is showing is precisely a Russian made rifled musket of the M1845 pattern.  And Russia was certainly not the only country that adopted the French guns for their own manufacture. The United States of course did, starting with our own Charleville Pattern or M1795 and we continued copying the French patterns almost exactly through our M1840. We also continued copying many French features through the era of the percussion muskets and the Trapdoor Springfield though the influence was less noticeable after the adoption of the US M1855 Rifle Musket, but it was still there.

Others who decided to use weapons styled after or made nearly exactly like the beautifully designed and well constructed French firearms were Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain and Italy used some as well as did Siam and Japan. The French domination of the field of artillery design was well known.  As a matter of fact, French military equipment of all types was copied, especially uniforms and accoutrements.  And lastly, French tactics and drill were adopted by everyone in one way or another. In one way or another, France was the inspiration for almost everything military throughout the 19th Century and into the early days of the 20th.

Now, while I have gotten long-winded in my reply here, I might remind our new and valuable friend Gatling that this site is dedicated to the study of the American Longrifle and it's design, construction and replication. AND that we are glad he has come here to ask for assistance in reconstructing his, to us, rare and almost unknown military weapon, even though it is a little outside our usual topic of discussion. I think most of us are enjoying it.

Thank you for your reply!

This gun, I restore the first time, to find your site, it was very hard, he was met by chance. I've seen here hunting rifles of different countries, many military rifles, remodel for hunting. I am interested in the fate of Russian guns at you, my friend said something like that in America they were, so I created a topic on your forum. I hope to help with the search for these rifles and their photos, as well as interesting to me the price and there is great interest in these guns.

I saw a lot of things for the restoration of shotguns, we have no such expertise, for me it is new and interesting. This gun is not the most interesting of those that I have, basically I've been collecting parts, and only recently started to make a gun.

This theme I created for you. I thought you would be interested in this gun.
