Description:
Antique BRITISH FUSIL Large Bore FLINTLOCK Musket .65 Caliber Smoothbore
Manufactured by James of London
Here we present an antique English Flintlock Fusil by James, made circa the early 19th Century in London, England. This smaller, lightweight musket is commonly referred to as a fusil. Fusils such as these were made by gunmakers at large rather than by the national armory and would have been used by officers, fusiliers, volunteer regiments, and even militia units.
This fusil follows the Brown Bess in form with its barrel secured by pins rather than bands. The barrel is 32" in length, shorter than the regular 2nd pattern Brown Bess of 42". These muskets were exported to the U.S. for militia service as well as for use as ships muskets, etc. As to officer's muskets, there was no official pattern which means that, while many are of smaller caliber, this was not a hard and fast rule. What is consistent is quality and practically every example displays a high level of.
The overall condition is very good. The action is strong and tight. The bore is in good shape. This example is commercially London proofed with crown “V” and “CP”. “JAMES/LONDON” is engraved on the lock. The stock is solid and remains in great shape. Here is stunning flintlock musket to display and collect!
