I am affraid that I have been taken on gunbroker. I purchased a type 1 1863 Springfield. When I took it apart to inspect and clean. I discovered very shiny metal under the barrel bands and the stock. It does appear to have some springfield marks(u's and one eagle head plus some other marks I dont recognize can anyone tell me what I should expect for foundry and assembly marks on the barrell itself
