Does anyone have information on this rifle? I know nothing of it’s pedigree other than it has been in my family for at least 50 years. Anyone who did know anything is now either dead or too old to remember.
There are three initials on top of the barrel ”“ it looks like maybe an “A.J.G.” but I can’t be sure. The two initials on the lockplate seem to be different. Double set triggers, full length stock, copper or bronze ramrod. The rifle came to me from Bedford County, PA, but I don’t know if it originated there.
Overall length: 53”
Barrel length: 38”
Barrel OD: 1” hexagon
Bore: ~.38” with 8 lands & grooves, right hand twist
