None. Clinton ordered them destroyed during his term. The survivors that were used in Gulf II through today, when the need for something not in a mouse gun caliber became apparent, are either ones Marine units and a few Army units ‘lost’ or are new-build Springfield Armory (the company not the government arsenal.)

My late father told me during the war he saw a warehouse still filled with muskets. Yes, muskets.
