    WTB Springfield M1861 parts, repro OK, and target quality barrel

    Good day all

    Looking to build up a Model 1861 rifle musket. Have a stock, need the hardware and a TARGET QUALITY barrel. Been away from this for a while and so I am not familiar with the current barrel makers. Please let me know what you have. Thanks!

    There are two barrel makers that I know of:

    Bobby Hoyt and Dan Whitacre.

    Hoyt has no electronic presence that I am aware of, Whitacre Machine Shop's web site is under maintenance at the moment.

    I have JRA Richmond Carbine with Hoyt barrel and it is probably my most accurate black powder arm. I also have a Euroarms P1853 with Whitacre barrel and it is also extremely accurate.

    Barrel

    I have an original 1860 Harper's ferry barrel that has brand new Hoyt liner. It is target quality. Never put on gun or fired. Beautiful bore. 300$ plus shipping. G pope

    Thanks for responding. I presume this is a M1855 rifle musket barrel? Can you
    send pics?
