AMERICAN WALNUT STOCKED FLINTLOCK REVOLUTIONARY WAR MUSKET. Cal. .76, 41″ long rnd bbl. All components of this musket, including the orig flintlock are from a French De La Marine 1771-73 musket. All brass and iron parts are uncleaned and the walnut stock finish is in dark attic condition. The lock appears to have been a three-screw lock on its original musket. The French hardware is early and very ornate. CONDITION: There is replaced wood on the toe of the butt stock, so well done it is difficult to detect. The two sling swivels are missing. There is a small glued crack under the lock and an orig piece of wood between the tang and the side plate is held in place by an early nail. The release spring for the upper bbl band is missing. A wood flaw was repaired at the rear bbl band probably when the gun was made. This musket was used hard but was not abused. 4-40001 RG11 (2,500-3,500)
