Warranted Percussion-Converted Fullstock Rifle

Description:

A 19th Century long barrel converted smooth bore .40 cal.,with a 39” octagon barrel with a mostly bright about very good bore. The barrel and lock have aged to a dark gray patina with some light-moderate pitting on the hammer and around the French-style side lug conversion and some overall spots of old light oxidation and pinprick pitting. The brass mountings have aged to a lightly-tarnished goldenrod patina with numerous tiny impact and light handling marks throughout. The lockplate is marked “Warranted” in front of the hammer and with game birds to the rear and is slant assembled in the lock;  could be a replacement?  The smooth American butternut? hardwood fullstock with scant left side cheekpiece rates good as  chips and cracks on either side of the barrel small filled repairs along the forend. Tthe hammer skirts are chipped, the sights are intact, a contemporary hardwood ramrod with brass tip is included and the action is functional, with a high nipple. A fancy brass patch box is present, and would make a very good over the mantle gun! When buying a gun always have it examined by a competent gunsmith  before  shooting. To buy a gun from me you must get a direct email for me, with details, and shipping cost.   We don’t have a web  site .I prefer money orders or a check.  Item ships when funds come in. I try to keep guns  affordable, which means I make less money than most dealers. You won’t get altitude sickness, or nose bleed, with my prices! I consistently have the best selection of  older guns If you attempt to buy,  you must still contact us for details . Best to email to buy. Sometimes a local person can stop buy and purchase before the gun is removed.  Sometimes not home to get calls. Some guns are required shipment to a gun dealer near you for a transfer to you when it arrives. Otherwise many older or black powder guns ship to your door. With the widest selection of older guns at great prices, We don’t have a store, and sell on the internet only.  I’m easy to get along with. Thank You
