Antique D. WEEKS Half-Stock .35 Caliber Perc. “SQUIRREL Hunting” LONG RIFLE Kentucky Style HUNTING/HOMESTEAD Long Rifle!
Description: Antique D. WEEKS Half-Stock .35 Caliber Perc. “SQUIRREL Hunting” LONG RIFLE Kentucky Style HUNTING/HOMESTEAD Long Rifle! Here we present an antique D. Weeks Squirrel Rifle, made circa the mid-19th Century in Erie, Pennsylvania. Weeks was known to have made half-stock “squirrel hunting” rifles. Its stout octagonal barrel is in .35 caliber, large enough to take small to medium sized game or to defend the homestead against unwanted aggression. Rifle manufacture in the mid-to-late 19th Century was rapidly changing over from thousands of craftsmen all over the United States and on the Frontier making and selling their wares, to the large factories with standardized assembly lines and modern manufacturing techniques. Many makers’ names of the so-called Kentucky long rifles have been lost over time. This rifle is one such example. The overall condition is very good. Strong action. Nice bore with good rifling. Solid stock, does contain a few small, stable cracks throughout. “AW” is in inscribed on a plaque around the left wrist. “JC CHILDS” and traditional floral engravings on the lock. “D. WEEKS” is marked atop the barrel. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 31-3/4 inches. Caliber: .35 Percussion 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 $1515 #210432 SOLD Antique: Yes |
