This interesting reproduction Brown Bess appears to be a blend of a 1756 Pattern Long Land musket and 1757 Pattern Horseman’s carbine as depicted on page 264 of Moller’s American Military Shoulder Arms Vol. I. The barrel and lock are toning to a gray patina with softened light pitting around the breech and on the center of the lockplate along with scattered spots of light oxidation. The Long Land pattern brass mountings are toning to a bright goldenrod patina with some scattered spots of light tarnish and a few light handling marks. The lock, which was likely made by Pedersoli in the 1970s, is marked “STOWE / 1756” behind the swan-neck cock while a “(crown) / GR” is ahead and it features a removable flash guard. The hardwood stock rates fine, and a few scattered light handling marks. The sling swivels, brass-tipped hardwood ramrod and bayonet stud are intact, and the action appears to function well mechanically. Most likely made by Pedersoli. Still an unusal gun to find.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 SOLD |
