Antique 3rd Model Brown Bess.
Dated 1815.. Excellent Mechanics. 75 Caliber.. Very Good Condition. Includes Bayonet.
Description: Antique 3rd Model Brown Bess. Selling another flintlock for a friend of mine.. I am not sure exactly what these are but will do my best with the information given to me.. If anyone knows more about this please let me know. Tag reads India Pattern.. The lock is dated 1815 and has the rampant lion. The barrel is 39” long without the tang. With the tang it measures 41 1/4”. The over all length is a little over 54” and almost 55” depending on where you measure at the butt plate. It has proof markings on the barrel.. The barrel is a smooth deep brown patina with no pitting anywhere but just a little minor pitting around the flash pan as you would expect. Does not look like it has ever been cleaned on or messed with. The lock works perfectly. The stock is real nice with no cracks or splits but the left side of the comb has been shaved as you can see in the photo. I guess the original owner had fat cheeks ??? Or it was made this way?? I have no idea... Work sheet I have says 75 caliber. Includes the bayonet. I can put up 15 photos but I have about 40 more that I can send directly to your e-mail if you want to see a lot more detailed photos of this thing. This is all I can say about it so if you have any questions give me a call at 765-728-8049 and I will try to answer them and of course the other photos I can send you. Two sheets of information will be included also. Shipping will be around $70 with insurance. Please click on the top blue link to see all of my items I have for sale..
