Up for sale is a nice, solid, and fully enjoyable (shootable!) original rifle. The rifle is not marked in any way.

Stats:
The barrel is 13/16" ATF, and 35" long
The OAL is 52"
The LOP is 13.75" to the front trigger
It has 3.5" of drop at the heel
It weighs 8lbs 14oz
The bore has a 4 groove rifling, and measures approximately .335" land to land

The bore is bright, with minor pitting near the muzzle. The Golcher lock operates as it should with a solid lockup. The original sear was damaged, so it sports a new one, from an L&R model 100 lock. There is no half cock position. This is fairly common for many rifles of the era with dual set triggers. The triggers work as they should, and are nice and smooth. It has a new nipple, which is the standard 1/4-28 thread. The threads in the bolster are in excellent condition. The original ramrod is included, as well as a fitted hickory one used for loading. The hickory rod is unfinished. It also has a poured pewter nose cap.

I shot this about 25 times yesterday, and never had an issue. I was using .320" and .323" ball with .015" patching and spit lube. I never had to swab between shots, nor was it ever hard to load. The windage is dead on, but it was shooting just a tad (2") high at 25 yards.

The stock has a triangular spot that looks like it has been repaired. It can be seen in the pictures. There is a small check forward of the lock bolt hole. It does not widen with lock bolt tension.

Asking 650+shipping.

Can be shipped broken down so a smaller box can be used. Packing will be excellent, and will ship fully insured.

Any questions, fire away! FE0E88D8-A612-41C4-A3B4-EC0748983852.jpeg
