ENGRAVED Antique RIDDLE Percussion OCTAGON BARREL Pennsylvania LONG RIFLE
AMERICAN Single Barrel FOWLING Piece BRASS HARDWARE
Description: ENGRAVED Antique RIDDLE Percussion OCTAGON BARREL Pennsylvania LONG RIFLE AMERICAN Single Barrel FOWLING Piece BRASS HARDWARE Here we present an antique Riddle Marked Percussion Single Barrel Hammer Gun, made circa 1840 in Pennsylvania. This is an octagonal barreled smoothbore "Kentucky" style long rifle, which more correctly is known as a Pennsylvania Long Rifle. The Riddle family of gunmakers are listed as being from the Philadelphia area in Pennsylvania. It features a sturdy full length stock that was made to withstand the trials and tribulations of that time in American history. This is an American fowling piece that has simplicity and practicality. Its stout octagonal barrel is in .40 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. Smooth, original brown patina. Strong action. The bore is in good shape for its age. This example sports a solid stock with average wear. Markings are legible. “RIDDLE” marked lock. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 32-3/8 inches. Caliber: .40 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 $1500 #250524 Antique: Yes Price: $1,500.00 Buy Now Pay with
