Here we present an antique S. Beck Half Stock Percussion Long Rifle, made circa the mid-1860s in Indianapolis, Indiana. In the Marion County and Indianapolis area in the mid-1800s, Christian Beck, Samuel Beck, Jacob Beck and William Beck worked as gunsmiths building flint lock rifles, percussion rifles, pistols, and shot guns. Their firearms are marked with their names stamped or signed into the barrels. The Becks had gun shops listed in Indianapolis and they were listed in the Indianapolis City Directory from 1858 onward. Samuel Beck was born in Pennsylvania in 1809. He built full and half stock rifles, pistols, flintlocks, percussion rifles & shotguns in Indianapolis, Indiana from 1861-1885. He is listed as the owner of the gun manufacturing company “Samuel Beck & Son” in Indianapolis. The business was located at 63 East Washington Street, Indianapolis. 

The overall condition is good. Original patina on the barrel. The action is strong. The bore is dim with decent rifling. The stock is solid and shows use. No ramrod. One of the ramrod tubes is absent. A well-used long rifle from Indiana!
