UNMARKED SOUTHERN FULL STOCK FLINTLOCK KENTUCKY RIFLE. Cal 36. Fine Southern Kentucky with 45-1/4” oct bbl, with early style German silver front sight and fixed rear sight. It has iron furniture with 3 guides and long flared nosepipe. It has a long narrow single screw sideplate and buttplate with long heel and toe plates. The trigger guard is plain but nicely worked to form a finger rest. It has DBL set triggers and the lock is lightly engraved and marked warranted. It appears that the pan, frizzen and roller spring are recent replacements and that this is a reconversion. The top tang screw is a modern replacement. CONDITION: About good. All the iron is a dark brown patina with moderate to heavy pitting around the pan area with heavy burnout in the wood. The forestock has several longitudinal cracks at the bbl channel and tip, and is missing the nosecap and several small slivers of wood. The rest of the stock is sound and retains most of an old refinish. Mechanics need attention. 4-50542 JR81 (2,000-3,000)
