About Us: I have sold and shipped many antique long rifles and various antique pistols successfully over the years. My descriptions are accurate and I include detailed photos. Feel free to ask for additional information. Finally, please see my positive feedback on ebay and elsewhere under the same username. Please keep in mind that since this is antique, you do NOT need an FFL for me to ship it to you.
Description:
Octagon barrel with diminutive blade front sight, notched rear sight and a tang mounted folding sight. Signed in silver “Jos Dolner in Kaum.” Full length jaeger-style stock with iconic flowing brass trigger guard with finger loops. Stock terminates in a horn cap; ramrod with brass wrapped tip retained by faceted ferrules. “Action” resembles a wheellock mechanism without the wheel, and only decorates the firearm. The true action is concealed in the butt with exterior crank for access without removing any screws. These rifles traditionally operated with a set of bellows in the buttstock and it is likely this follows the same pattern. Lock is decorated with sparse scrollwork. Wood has decorative brass inlays in flowing patterns but unengraved and areas of incise and relief carving with florals and areas of checkering. CONDITION: Very good. Metal parts are a smooth dark patina. Brass has a dark mustard patina. Stock is good, with several areas of cracks, repairs, and chips, but well presenting the carving. This is a very attractive example of a fine German air rifle.
Shipping and insurance to you is included (lower 48). However, you'll have to return my aluminum hard case at your expense. PLEASE NOTE: I do not recommend firing the antique guns that I sell. If you decide to do so, you do it at your own risk! This includes working the actions (locks, hammers, triggers, etc.) Old guns (pre-1899) have old parts, including old springs and other internals (we are talking about 150+ years old, on average!). These parts can and do break. You are not buying a new gun; this is an antique/collectible and it is catagorized as such for that reason.
