War musket most likely Durch or Germanic as there is no maker name but profuse proofs on the barrel. Often when a gun is made for export the makers name is omitted , as was common practice. The 46" long barrel (.69cal.) same as the Brown bess long land means that this was most likely made in the 1730's to 1740's with the goose neck flint haammer. As the Colonies had needed arms depesparetly they were brought in from all over the world and this fine gun saw actiin in the French and Indian War right up through the War of 1812! The action works well and the back of the trigger guard has a brass tail missing. The bore is as expected is encrusted with corrosion . The Brass furniture has a nice mustard mellow color.
