British Brass Barrel Flintlock Blunderbuss with "I FARMER 1744" Lock

The lock is marked with "I/FARMER/1744" at the tail, the Georgian cipher at the middle, and a "crown/broad arrow" below the non-bridled pan. The brass barrel flares to 1 3/8 inches at the muzzle (bore estimated above) and has "crown/P" and "crown/V proofs on the upper left at the breech. It is mounted with brass furniture, including a Brown Bess style side plate.

ConditionGood with attractive aged patina on the brass, gray patina and mild pitting on the lock and tang, and general moderate wear. The refinished stock is also good and has some cracks, noticeable large chips near muzzle, and other repairs. Mechanically fine.
