Weighs 9 lb's and obviously reusued parts from a military gun into a meat gun for someone at one time. Barrel measures 41" to the breech face and is a .700 bore. Looks like to me a converted flintlock (?). Lock is solid and clicks with authority, half cock and full cock. The gun appears to be solid and with a new nipple just might be fireable. I think it's been restocked rather than cut down but what do I know...there is a ramrod pipe lost it's solder but it it is still on the ramrod and could be replaced. Cool piece just wish it didn't weigh so much. I have not taken it a part at all or done anything to it. Thw ramrod has what appears as an home made worm on one end.
Only thing I can see on the barrel is stamped a "U" and an "M" or a "3" that looks like an M, not sure. No other markings I can see, nothing on the outside of the lock.
