According to George Moller's "American Military Shoulder Arms Volume II: From the 1790s to the End of the Flintlock Period," the muzzle extension on a Model 1816 is 3 and 3/16" An article I found online by the American Society of Arms Collectors states that of five pre-1822 Model 1816s they examined, the muzzle extension was between 3" and 3 and 3/16"
Super informative as usual. I look forward to seeing each new episode.
Very informative, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
Well presented information. Thanks.
Is a rifle-musket formally referred to as a “rusket” or a “mifle?” Or is it something more exotic, like a “Muskiflet?”
Do you happen to know the distance between the end of the stock on an 1816 and the muzzle?

@@MusketMissive is that from the wood or the nose cap?
@@zippofanmc The end of the stock is roughly even with the end of the nose cap, so it's both.
