Registering here.. I have a m1860 Spencer, original block and a center fire conversion block.  I'm inn need of proper bullet mold actually or the where abouts of one as the 50/70 casings I've adapted, the outside diameter after fire forming, is the same diameter one needs for the bullet.  So, to make it work (I think) I'd need to have the bullet stepped down to take in account of the casing wall thickness to chamer proberly.  Thanks in advance and any help/assistance would be appriciated.

Always thought spencers were interesting, even thought about getting one (settled on an Uberti yellowboy).
Then yesterday, my father in law pulled out an original 1860 carbine and told me to "take it home for now if you like it." (!!!)
Needless to say, a ken burns documentary and a viewing of Unforgiven later, I'm hooked.

I'll post pics shortly!

Just purchased an original 1860 Spencer Carbine last week and want to try and track down who it was originally issued to. I was told by the seller that some research was done and it was issued some time in 1864 to Company D, 12th. Illinois Cavalry. The serial number is 19672. I would like to become a member of the society.

Howdy All!! Cattleman77 would like to join the SSS. I have just purchased my first CW rifle. I do not have it in my hands yet, but a Spencer Model 1860 Carbine in its original config should be here any day. I am very much looking forward to getting it and will probably have some questions for the experts on this fine forum.

Howdy all!  Like to join your Spencer society.  Have had an original 1860 for about 13 years now and guess it is about time I start trying to find out a little about it (What appears to be Ser #43578  The No. is very faint and very hard to read).  Hope this forum can help.

Hi All, I`m a keen shooter collector of American Spencer rifles/carbines. I have a slightly wood worn but otherwise mech. excellent Spencer 6 groove 1860 M rifle in 56/56 serial no:- 3852 Insp. Samuel Leonard; also a Spencer 6 groove carbine 1865 M was 56/50 in near mint cond. serial no:- 20752 conv. to 50/70 : and a 1871 Spencer 3 groove 50/70 Rifle which is one of the few marriages of a 1865 carbine (Burnside) to a rifle barrel serial No:-30875 which with the S&S conv. block still shoots well at 200 yds and everyone in the Club wants a go. I would like help in finding what regiments these arms were original attached to and possibly the soldier who carried same.             Cheers from across the Pond      Flinter
