For the Love of Smoothbore Flintlocks

[Cattywompuss]

My .60 smooth rifle, signed by a J. Woods, and what several here have said was a Narragansett Arms.

What's the low-down on that danty smooth rifle?

I a acquired it along with a Jack Garner Iron Early Virginia Rifle. I suspect it’s also Jacks work. It has a .60 44 inch octagonal to round barrel with an adjustable rear sight and turtle front sight. It is in Iron and while it weighs 8.2 pounds the balance is beautiful. Attached are more pictures
