The 1858 Enfield rifled musket was one of the most commonly used Civil War firearms, second only to the 1861 Springfield. A shortened version of the 1853 pattern Enfield, the 1858 had refinements for infantry use such as the adjustable ladder rear sight. It was one of the most accurate rifles of its day, and was highly sought out by troops on both sides.
