Civil War Musket Found Underwater while Scuba Diving in Local River.

Holy smokes what a day. My friends and I all suited up for a cold day of hunting for treasure and exploring the bottom of the river. I do this every weekend by the way. I'm addicted. Never in a million years did I think I would have swam up on a musket. Actually my friend Nick was the guy who found it. He came out of the water losing his mind. Screaming and shouting. Sure enough, he had found a genuine musket. And for being over a 100 years old. It was buried in the mud which might explain how it's in such good condition. What's truly amazing is we didn't find just one rifle. WE FOUND THREE!!! Check out the pics below and if you want to see the video, go over to the video section in this forum. Thanks for looking.

Great find of the musket. My guess would be that the musket was tossed in the river after the stock was broken over some Yank's hard head. Ded Jim yanks. Lol Seriously, that was one Fantastic find and save. I'm sure it will have a special place in your collection.
