    FS: Bernadelli M1841 Mississippi Rifle W/ Zouave Sword Bayonet

    Hello Friends,
    1) I have for sale a 1970's era Bernadelli M1841 Mississippi Rifle with a reproduction Zouave sword bayonet. The early Bernadelli reproductions had brazed on bolsters which made them susceptible to blowing off especially when they were fired with live rounds. This is one of the early production rifles. I had Dan Whitacre remove the original breech/ bolster and replace it with his breech which incorporates the breech/bolster in one part. This makes the rifle safe to shoot. One thing to note is that the larger breech makes the tang stick up slightly and the hammer had to be bent slightly to strike the nipple. The lock works perfectly and I believe the rifle has never been shot. The rifle does not have a bayonet lug for the bayonet which must be purchased separately. Let me know if you need more pictures. The price is $525 shipped.

    I accept paypal only. Please send payment for friends and family. My paypal address is tkess170@live.kutztown.edu
    Thanks, Thomas Kessler

    Is it legal?

    From what I have been told, other problems keep the bernadelli from passing SAAC inspection.

    The last one I had I was told by David at Lodgewood that the stock was to short. So between Dan Whitacre telling me he "didnt think he could help me" fitting a new barrel, and David Stavlo telling me the stock was wrong - I got rid of it.
