Very good condition, metal carries a light patina that has been polished bright. The refinished walnut stock remains in good condition showing a couple longitudinal cracks with dents & handling marks. Stock also shows numerous initials carved into the left side. Hammer & trigger operate correctly. Nice original Harpers Ferry 1816 reconverted Flintlock that would make a fine addition to any collection.
