ENGRAVED Antique E. AYERS Back Action .40 Percussion Long Rifle HOMESTEAD
Mid-19th Century Kentucky Style Long Rifle
Here we present an antique E. Ayers Long Rifle, made circa the mid-19th Century. This rifle’s stout octagonal barrel is in .40 caliber, large enough to take small to medium sized game or to defend the homestead against unwanted aggression. Rifle manufacture in the mid-to-late 19th Century was rapidly changing over from thousands of craftsmen all over the United States and on the Frontier making and selling their wares, to the large factories with standardized assembly lines and modern manufacturing techniques. Many makers’ names of the so-called Kentucky long rifles have been lost over time. This rifle is one such example.
The overall condition is good. Strong action. The bore is in good shape for its age. Solid stock overall. The buttplate is missing a screw allowing it to sway right to left. The repaired cracks at the wrist are stable. “E. AYERS” signed barrel.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 30-1/2 inches.
Caliber: .40 Percussion
