The Mississippi Rifle made in West Virginia

1. I usually catch your legal related videos but alway catch a peak at the rifles standing behind you. Great video. Looks like you have a great collection. Thanks for sharing.

2. Have a reproduction, sweet gun.Jack

3. The Mississippi rifles from harpers ferry were not used in the Mexican American war.

   Most of the harpers ferry Mississippi rifles were sold to citizens after years in storage.

4. Since West Virginia didn't come into existence until 1863, these rifles were made in Harper's Ferry Virginia.

5. Man, you’re awesome. I know so little about the Mexican American war it’s embarrassing in comparison to my knowledge of WW2.

6. Very interesting and educational.

7. God forbid that the day should ever come when to be true to my constituents is to be hostile to the Union.

8. You should do more historical videos

9. Very, very Cool. Thank you.

10. Love the show.

11. Great Video! I love shooting my 1841 Mississippi muzzle loader, check it out https://youtu.be/bF-9GemJXv8

12. I’m a member of the Mississippi army national guard. I’m in a combat engineer unit, part of the 155th Brigade Combat Team. Our infantry battalion, 1/155 is the famous Mississippi Rifles, still going strong today 👍

13. I have just came into possession of a Harpers Ferry Mississippi Rifle with an 1853 date. The bore measures .59-.60 on my Calipers. I can barely tell that there is rifling in the barrel. Is there a way for sure to tell if it’s a .58 rifle or a “smooth” bore shotgun. I’m new to this era of firearms and black powder. This was handed down to me by my grandmother and I don’t know much about it. Thanks for the video

14. Nice. I would like to acquire Colt AR-15 rifles, wonder if that act covers us new settlers?

15. Didn’t know

16. I would love for you to make more videos!

17. Best looking musket of Civil War!

18. History is fascinating! Enjoyed that J.B.

19. Nice even I can own that one

20. Very cool!
