Acquired this through an online auction in Pa. Always admired the workmanship Josh Golcher put in his locks and bid on this rifle because of that. Once received however, I realized it was an original. 45 cal., octagon to round barrel with 2 British proof marks that put it in the 1815–1855 range. Brass furniture, single trigger, strong rifling. The only damage to the rifle is a small piece is missing from the heel of the stock. When received, there was no evidence of misuse, no dust or buildup on the outer surfaces. The bore showed a light coating of rust that cleaned up easily.
