Description:
GREAT BARRINGTON, MASS. Antique GEORGE CROSBY LONG RIFLE Homestead Hunting

c1840s New England

Here we present an antique G.C. Crosby Long Rifle made circa the mid-1800s. George C. Crosby was a gunmaker working out of Great Barrington, Massachusetts in the mid-1800s. This would have been a rugged and reliable piece used for hunting medium to small game as well as for fighting purposes. Many such rifles were made in the east for men going west to seek their fortunes.

This piece features a .40 caliber octagonal barrel with a turned down muzzle, hooded front sight, peep rear sight, and maker markings on the lock and the barrel.

The overall condition is good. Dark barrel patina. The stock shows use and has a very old chip above the lock to the rear and remains solid. Strong action. The bore has darkened with serviceable rifling. Legible markings. Features a nice rear peep sight. Lightly engraved lock and hammer. A neat rifle from New England!

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.

Barrel is 31-1/2 inches.

Caliber: .40 Percussion
