Antique Otto Schneelock Percussion Schützen Rifle – Brooklyn, New York
Professionally Restored by Turnbull Restoration
Offered is an exceptional antique Otto Schneelock percussion Schützen rifle, manufactured in Brooklyn, New York, and restored to the highest standard by Turnbull Restoration.

The rifle features a 32 1/2" hook-breech barrel with an excellent bore and a properly crowned muzzle. The set trigger is fully functional, breaking cleanly as intended. The rifle retains its original sights and classic Schützen buttplate, preserving the correct period profile.
