I recently bought a clean little .36 caliber percussion rifle for a really good price. It's supposedly a Narragansett Arms built rifle, but I can't confirm it. Looks like a cross between a full stock Hawken style and a Leman plains rifle to my uneducated eye. It has double set triggers, brass buttplate and triggerguard, and the barrel is held to the stock by two bolt through ramrod pipes (which are hideous and don't fit the small rod).
I was hoping to convert it to Flint, but I can't find a flint lock that has the same rounded corner as this lock. I was hoping it would be an L&R lock like on my Narragansett Fusil de Chasse but this one isn't marked and doesn't look like their lock. Anybody identify this lock and trigger? Is it decent?
The green marker is pointing to the rounded corner that is square on all other locks of this style I have found.
