I wanted to share something that doesn't seem to turn up very often any more. This is an 1861 M60 Zündnadelgewehr by Saarn. This was one of the nicer examples I've come across with all matching parts, an intact needle and a correct bayonet (sadly the scabbard is lost to the ages.) The rifle is unit marked with a nice shiny bore. I've always been intrigued by needle guns, but the Fusilier model was one of my favorites. Just a classy, old world design. Anyway, here are some pics:
