Mike Brooks reproduction of an original Deep River North Carolina rifle.

42 1/4" 1-72 twist new old stock swamped Sharon barrel from the 1970’s in .45 caliber. 1" at the breech, 3/4" at the waist and 7/8" at the muzzle. Rare barrel twist today, being slow for a .45 it will handle more powder and maintain down range accuracy over today's faster twist .45 barrels. Shot very little I found it likes 70 to 80 grains of FFFg powder and will handle 90 grains without issue, makes for a nice shooting .45 caliber hunting and target rifle.

Tuned Chambers late Ketland lock.

Chambers tuned Siler set trigger. Lock will cock with the trigger set or not, requires the rear trigger set to fire which is correct for southern rifles.

Hard maple stock. 13 3/4" pull. Weighs 7 1/2 lbs.

Would like to sell locally to avoid shipping. Located in northern, NJ.

$1500.00, send a PM if interested.
