Long rifle ID - 99% certainly modern

Since I can't post images here, I'm posting a link to another forum - https://www.firearmstalk.com/threads/need-info.129042/#post-1964944

On this link you will see a very fine flintlock long rifle that appears, to me, to be a modern replication. I am by no means trying to belittle it - I wish it were mine - but the owner is at a loss to identifying it.

It has the name K L Shelton on it somewhere - he doesn't say where - and the name, probably of the person for whom it was made - D Eagan - on the barrel.

Any help that you can offer in the identification of this lovely piece would be greatly appeciated.

TIA

Tac,
Without actually seeing it, it's hard to tell. You have to be a member to view the pics.
Generally, the name engraved on the barrel is the builder. Initials on a wrist piece, comb of buttplate, or other inlay is whom it was built for.
I guess I'll set up an account so I can see what you got.

Definitely a contemporary piece. A nice amateur job. Not up to modern builder standards, but a nice rifle none the less.
Rifle seems well put together, carving is rather amateurish, but all in all, if it functions well, shoot it and enjoy.

Sure looks modren I would be happy to own it, or do as nice of work.
