1850s W.B. BARRATT Antique “Burton on Trent” BLUNDERBUSS with SNAP BAYONET
BACK ACTION Close Range Weapon w/DAMASCUS BARREL
Description: 1850s W.B. BARRATT Antique “Burton on Trent” BLUNDERBUSS with SNAP BAYONET BACK ACTION Close Range Weapon w/DAMASCUS BARREL Here Ancestry Guns presents an antique W.B. Barratt British Flintlock Blunderbuss with a Snap Bayonet, made circa 1849 to 1857 in Burton on Trent, England. Burton on Trent, also known as Burton-Upon-Trent or simply Burton, is a market town in the borough of East Staffordshire in the county of Staffordshire, England. The Barratt firm is listed in operation in Burton-upon-Trent from 1849 to at least 1900, under various forms of the name, later including his son. The back action lockplate is marked “W.B.BARRATT”, while the top flat of the “Damascus” twist barrel is marked “BURTON ON TRENT”, both being lightly engraved with floral scroll. This is a full-sized, shoulder fired weapon that is quite impressive and certainly would have been devastating within its intended range. The barrel has a wedding-band transition and flares to approximately 1-3/8 inches at the muzzle. It is fitted with a desirable snap bayonet on top with a blade measuring approximately 16 inches. The trigger guard, breech plug, and bayonet latch are also lightly engraved with scroll. It is mounted with a full-length walnut stock having a checkered wrist, blank German silver escutcheon on top of the wrist, and a smooth steel buttplate. A brass-tipped ebony ramrod is fitted under the forestock in iron ferrules. A blunderbuss such as this would have made a fantastic coach gun during the mid-19th century. The overall condition is very good. Strong action. Good bore for its age. Light floral engravings on metal parts. This example sports a solid stock, has been re-varnished, with a few thin, stable cracks. Fully functioning snap bayonet. Traces of Damascus barrel patterns. Original mixed patinas. Lock markings are sharp. A blunderbuss such as this, is what most people imagine a pirate crew using to commandeer an unsuspecting ship! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 18-3/4 inches. Caliber: Approximately 14 Gauge Flaring to 1-3/8 inch. 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. $6450 #258106 SOLD Antique: Yes |
