Description:
THIS FLINTLOCK IS AN ANTIQUE AND THE BARREL IS MARKED JOHN T ASH COLUMBUS OH 1849. I GOT IT AS A CONVERTED PERCUSSION RIFLE. I PURCHASED A NEW REPLACEMENT L&R FLINTLOCK LOCK AND FLASH HOLE LINER AND INSTALLED THEM IN THE ORIGINAL RIFLE. THE SINGLE STAGE TRIGGER WORKS BUT THE SET TRIGGER HAS TO BE ADJUSTED TO THE NEW LOCK. IT HAS A LIGHTLY SWAMPED 37 1/2" BARREL WITH PEWTER AND BRASS HARDWARE THAT FEELS AND CLEANS LIKE IT HAS A SHOOTABLE BORE. I DON'T HAVE AN INTERNAL BORE LIGHT SMALL ENOUGH TO GET A PICTURE. COMES WITH A DELRIN ROD AND A NEW WOODEN ROD. THE NEW WOODEN ROD HAS A BRASS END, FITS THE BARREL BUT NEEDS THE WOOD THINNED TO FIT THE FERRULES. THE BOTTOM OF THE BUTTSTOCK HAS A MISSING BRASS PIECE AND NEEDS REPAIR. IT COMES WITH A MUZZLE CAST, THE 2 RODS AND A PARTIAL PIECE OF THE MISSING BRASS BUTT. THE CERROSAFE MUZZLE CAST MICS ABOUT .035 FOR THE BORE. WITH SOME REFINISHING, REPAIR AND CLEAN UP IT WILL FINISH UP AS A SHOOTABLE SMALL CALIBER ANTIQUE FLINTLOCK.
SHIPPING IS $50 UPS VIA MY LOCAL GUNSTORE (ANTIQUE NO PAPERWORK)
PROOF OF 21 YEARS OF AGE REQUIRED FOR PURCHASE'
I'LL SHIP USPS PRIORITY IF YOU PREFER BUT WITH A RIFLE THIS LONG THE SHIPPING WILL BE MORE THAN $50.
