MASSIVE Unmarked EUROPEAN Antique “DOGLOCK” FLINTLOCK .80 MUSKET SCARCE Late 18th / Early 19th Century Flint Musket
Description: MASSIVE Unmarked EUROPEAN Antique “DOGLOCK” FLINTLOCK .80 MUSKET SCARCE Late 18th / Early 19th Century Flint Musket Here we present an antique European Doglock Flintlock Musket, made circa the late 18th to early 19th century. It appears to be possibly Swedish, though without definite marking, that is unknown. This appears to be an early example from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. It has a blade front sight on the top of the barrel. A doglock is a type of lock for firearms that preceded the 'true' flintlock in rifles, muskets, and pistols in the 17th century. Commonly used throughout Europe in the 17th & 18th century, it gained popularity in the British and Dutch military. Unlike the later flintlock devices, it had an external catch as a half-cock safety, known as the "dog". This type of lock had no internal, half-cock loading position as the later flintlock mechanism contained. To load a firearm with a dog lock, the cock was secured with the external dog, preventing it from moving forward to strike the frizzen and begin the firing sequence. The user could then safely load the musket or pistol. This musket has a massive .80 caliber bore and would have been most at home defending the homestead or putting big game on the table. The overall condition is good. Stock is solid with repairs around the lock mechanism and some missing material at the toe. Deep dark patina throughout the barrel and lock. The trigger doesn’t drop the hammer. The Doglock re-converted. The bore is dark. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 42-5/8 inches. Caliber: .80 Doglock Flintlock 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 $1750 #250569 Antique: Yes Price: $1,750.00 Buy Now Pay with
