SOLD TVM .58 Caliber Flintlock with 42" barrel

[cowrustler]

Here is a rifle not for the limp-wristed. According to my bathroom scale this rifle adds almost 10 pounds to my weight. 42" barrel, 1&1/16" across the flats, set trigger and a good sparker. I have not shot this rifle but I expect it would be a good shooter like most TVM products. Metal is browned, wood is excellent. Bore is very nice. This would be a good bear, elk, or moose rifle for the shooter who can handle it or the deer hunter who wants to take a stand and sit there. $1300 shipped and insured to your door in the lower 48.

What is the lop on that over the log rifle? Thanks

 

[cowrustler]

Appears to be 13&1/2" to the front trigger, 12&3/4" to the rear if I measured correctly.

 

[Muley Gil]

What is on the breech area in your photo? It looks like active rust.

 

[cowrustler]

I think it's more like over-active browning from TVM. I wiped it down with some CLP and it seems to have smoothed it out some.

 

[Max Bowers]

Sorry if I missed this, but, is the barrel swamped?

 

[cowrustler]

Max, it looks straight to me, cowrustler

Did you order it from TVM or take it in trade, something like that? What is the twist rate?

Thanks!

 

[cowrustler]

William, I can't remember for sure but I think I got it in trade. I did not order it from TVM. It's been awhile. My rough measurement looks like a 1-65 or 1-70 twist, definitely a round ball gun.

Caliber?? My bad saw the caliber in the title.

 

[brazosland]

Can you post a pic of the muzzle?

 

[cowrustler]

I just replaced my computer and will get your pictures tomorrow. Thanks for your patience, cowrustler
