A much-used appendage for Civil War muskets. This wiper would be screwed on to the threaded end of a ramrod and used to “pull” bullets or to extract cartridge paper and cleaning patches. This small item has the appearance of a cork screw. Measures approximately 0.80” tall.
This is the rarely encountered .58 caliber size. Most seen on the market today are the .69 caliber wipers. [jet] [ph:L]
