This is a well above average Burnside carbine​ . The barrel retains about 40% factory blue finish with the rest fading to a blue-brown patina. The frame retains about 60 % of it's factory case colors.  The frame tangs at the wrist exhibit 90% factory blue on the top tang and 60% on the bottom tang. The stock is generally good with some dents and handling marks. It exhibits two very good cartouches. The bore is beautiful with good rifling and is still very shiny.  A nice addition to any Civil War collection.
