NICE EARLY AMERICAN BUCK AND BALL GUN.

NICE EARLY AMERICAN BUCK AND BALL GUN. Cal. 58 smooth. 44″ oct/rnd signed bbl. This rifle has a very nice PA Rifle Works lock, which is unfortunately incorrect for this gun. The gun originally had a flintlock. The gun features a nice early brass triggerguard, an early curled trigger, and an early heavy beveled brass 2-screw sideplate. The bbl is signed by the maker, but unfortunately is worn to the point where the name cannot be read. With the addition of a correct lock and if the name on the bbl can be deciphered this is an excellent early American buck and ball gun. There is a heart shaped inlay forward of the triggerguard. The iron ramrod is an incorrect replacement. CONDITION: Bbl has even patina throughout with heavy pitting in the breech. Stock is solid with no restorations or repairs but with the usual dents and dings associated with a gun that has seen heavy usage. If a correct flint lock is to be added some wood repair would be necessary. 4-32707 RG36 (1,500-1,800)

Auction: Firearms - Fall 2007
