Manufactured circa 1800-1810. The brass barrel is four stages with the bore flaring at the muzzle to approximately 1 inch, "London" in script on top, and turned moldings. British proofs including boxed "T-K" on the upper left. The sprung bayonet is fitted beneath the barrel, and the iron ramrod is housed on the left side. The engraved iron standing breech has a sighting groove. The flat beveled lock has a stepped tail and is signed “Ketland/& Co.” The walnut, half length stock is fitted with engraved brass furniture including a trigger guard incorporating the bayonet release trigger on the finial. "DE" is marked behind the trigger guard tang. The bore is estimated at 20 gauge.

Fine, the barrel and other brass components mostly bright with an attractive lightly aged patina, and the iron showing a bright grey patina with some light flash pitting. The wood is also fine with some minor stabilized cracking/filler repair around the barrel wedge and otherwise scattered minor dings. Mechanically excellent.
