AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY WAR ERA CURLY MAPLE MUSKET.

Cal. 75. 41″ full rnd bbl, American stocked musket of the Revolutionary period or slightly later. It is stocked in excellent curly maple and exhibits the stock architecture of Pennsylvania long rifles from the Berks County area of PA. Bbl has faint markings of “P” and No 9″. The orig flintlock is a European lock with a crown over an illegible cartouche stamped in the lock. All of the hardware are European brass parts, possibly from a French or Dutch musket or both. Buttplate appears to be that of a Dutch or German with crude markings “3BT 26B”. Behind the sideplate there is a 2″ long ebony diamond inlaid into the stock. The gun may possibly have been made in PA with recycled European musket parts and is in excellent condition structurally. The wood surface needs to have a rejuvenated finish applied. Ramrod is also a period to the gun. This is the kind of musket that could have been made during the later years of the American Rev. or shortly thereafter. CONDITION: All metal parts have been polished or cleaned, and the stock is devoid of a surface finish and thus has a dry appearance, possibly from having its orig old surface cleaned at one time. 4-51330 SDH20 (3,000-5,000) – Lot 3315
