I'm sure what type and veriant it is but would like Expert knowledge. Mississippi rifle with long range rear sight, brass front sight, short nose band, bayonet lug with long rail (one inch long), .54 cal, thats about it. And is there any of this type and veriant approved that were custom made. Thanks

Brad, depending on which Long Range sight, and how it is attached, this is in N-SSA terms a Type A, B, or C, all of which have a bayonet lug with long lead, a long range sight, a short type front band, and the original brass front sight. All can be either .54 or .58.

Send me an e-mail if you need to, or I may be at Pleasant Hill this coming weekend.
