ENGRAVED Antique Full-Stock .45 Percussion SMOOTHBORE Rifle PIONEER Era
Kentucky Style Rifle “HENRY PARKER/WARRANTED Lock
Description: ENGRAVED Antique Full-Stock .45 Percussion SMOOTHBORE Rifle PIONEER Era Kentucky Style Rifle “HENRY PARKER/WARRANTED Lock Here we present an antique Full Stock Percussion Conversion American Long Rifle, made circa the early 1800s and converted circa the mid-1800s. This rifle would have started out life as a flintlock, and converted sometime after the more reliable percussion firing system was introduced. Its stout octagonal barrel is in .45 caliber, large enough to take medium to large 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. The action does not function as there is no hammer spring tension. Good bore if its age. The middle barrel band is missing. Absent ramrod. Markings are legible. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 35 inches. Caliber: .31-1/2 Percussion Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1800 #230898 Price: $1,800.00 Buy Now Antique: Yes Contact Seller |
