The Confederate Govt took over the Robinson Arms Manufactory on March 1, 1863, and there after the S.C. Robinson markings were deleted, thus they do not appear on this weapon. While it was made in Richmond, Virginia in 1863 or 1864, it was no longer a S.C. Robinson product.
If this lock plate / right side with hammer/ is for sale I would be interested. I have a CS robinson rifle, but a non informing lock plate.
Thanks
