Description:
A fine muzzleloader od About 10 ga., 45 1/2” part octagon part round barrel with an oxidized bore. The barrel is an overall very pleasing plum brown patina, the under rib matching, there is a single brass bead front and turned medial at the point of transition with moderate pitting in the area of the nipple barrel. The back action lock is a gray patina with light open scroll engraving, continuing onto the hammer and is “Wm Read/Boston” marked. There is a pewter nosecap, simple brass buttplate and triggerguard with grip flourish, they are goldenrod patina. The light-grain American walnut stock rates about very good as refinished many years ago, showing a crack at left rear of tang, small chip which has synthetic filler and crack beneath lockplate through front extension of guard continuing forward for about 3”, it will flex and is unrepaired. The lock does function although the tumbler is worn and what is likely the original ramrod is included. Overall length of this nice long Boston Fowler is 61 1/2”. An excellent mantel candidate. When buying a gun always have it examined by a competent gunsmith before shooting. To buy a gun from me you must get a direct email for me, with details, and shipping cost. We don’t have a web site .I prefer money orders or a check. Item ships when funds come in. I try to keep guns affordable, which means I make less money than most dealers. You won’t get altitude sickness, or nose bleed, with my prices! I consistently have the best selection of older guns If you attempt to buy, you must still contact us for details . Best to email to buy. Sometimes a local person can stop buy and purchase before the gun is removed. Sometimes not home to get calls. Some guns are required shipment to a gun dealer near you for a transfer to you when it arrives. Otherwise many older or black powder guns ship to your door. With the widest selection of older guns at great prices, We don’t have a store, and sell on the internet only. I’m easy to get along with. Thank You
