Both the Harpers Ferry and Springfield armories produced the Model 1842 U.S. Percussion Musket in great numbers from 1844 to 1855. This reproduction is true to the original measurements with a 42" barrel and a total length of 57-3/4 inches. The Model 1842 was notable in several aspects, mainly that it was the .69 caliber musket.

Harpers Ferry produced 103,000 while Springfield produced 172,000 for a total production surpassing a quarter of a million arms. NSSA Approved.
