Description:
SHORT Antique Half Stock American “LONG RIFLE” .38 Caliber GERMAN SILVER
Kentucky Style Long Rifle with Stout Octagon Barrel!
Here we present an Antique Half Stock Percussion Long Rifle in .38 Caliber, made circa the mid-19th Century. Its stout octagonal barrel is in .38 caliber, large enough to take medium-sized game or to defend the homestead against unwanted aggression. This one would have especially been handy given its short stature. It has nice German silver décor throughout.
Rifle manufacture in the mid-to-late 19th Century was rapidly changing over from thousands of craftsmen all over the United States and on the Frontier making and selling their wares, to the large factories with standardized assembly lines and modern manufacturing techniques. Many makers’ names of the so-called Kentucky long rifles have been lost over time. This rifle is one such example.
The overall condition is very good. The action is strong. The bore is semi-bright and remains in good shape. The stock is solid all around. A great little rifle from the mid-19th Century!
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 20-1/2 inches.
Caliber: .38 Percussion
