Did I miss the caliber? How long is the barrel?

What is the LOP?

 

[waarp8nt]

The barrel is 34 inches long, length of pull from 1st trigger to center of the butt plate is 13.5 inches. I cannot find my calipers, my brass bore measure reads it at 40 Caliber.

My bore light doesn't fit. Just from looking down the bore with a flash light, I do not see any major pitting or rust, that being said the bore is not bright, shiny or new....it a 130+ year old gun. Shoot-able condition condition barrel in my opinion.

Hooked breech?

Hooked breech?

It is not hooked breech, the barrel is pinned in.

Lock and trigger function properly.
