Help with rifle ID
Can anyone help me ID these for a friend that inherited them?

From those pics, I got nothing. May be replicas, who knows.

That .22 was sold by Sears. I have one identical to it.

1861 or '63 Springfield? Hard to tell from the poor quality photos. I see too much ram rod, has it been "sporterized"?


The barrel barrel bolster on the one with the broken stock makes me think it's a reproduction.

Thanks! Sorry about the poor photos, that's all I was given. Other than guessing one was a .22 I don't know anything about them.

The top one looks like a Springfield 1861. Real or replica I can't say from these pictures.

The bottom looks like a typical Hawken Plains Rifle. It too could be real or not; however, for some reason it makes me think it might be a replica.

Worth: $20 (for both) to $500 each.
