GR-0824-6314, Jenks USN Side Hammer Carbine, aka Mule Ear. The rifle retains 90% original barrel brown, brass mounted with bright colored lock that has turned a mottled gray. The hammer / mechanics are functional. This is a gun that was altered for Civil War use, with oval aperture to shoot a paper cartridge and an iron plunger. They altered these in 1861 for CW use. Dated 1845 with USN on the barrel breech. It has JENKS AND SPRINGFIELD MARKINGS. Bore is .54 and rifled, it is bright, bright, shiny crisply rifled with a few spots with light residue. Near excellent bore, excellent if those few patches of light residue clean out. The stock was lightly cleaned at some point and some oil was applied for protection. You can still see the outline of the cartouche on the left side of the stock. Very good plus overall.
