LONDON PROOFED Likely Native American Trade Gun

The Early American and European countries inhabiting the frontier or remote outposts had to be very careful to sell only obsolescent firearms to the natives so that they could maintain the upper hand should tensions rise. Many trade guns were shortened when their barrels were damaged or to make them more agile on horseback or in the woods. They were used from the colonial era and into the early 20th century and were the main firearms used by Native Americans through much of American history, including during the American Revolution, Custer's Last Stand, and the late 19th century Indian Wars. The lock appears to be marked "HOLMES/UTICA/N.Y.". It has a "LONDON" marked barrel with London proofs, Native American style brass tack, and turquoise decoration inlaid into the stock.
