Clarke of Dublin Brass Barreled Flintlock Blunderbuss

Manufactured by Nicholas Clarke of Dublin, Ireland, who was active 1787-1811. The lock is signed "CLARKE" and the part octagon barrel is signed "CLARKE DUBLIN" on the top flat and marked "N-T 2813" (registration number from North Tipperary County, Ireland) ahead of the transition to round. The bore measured approximately .71 caliber and flares to 1 1/2 inches at the belled muzzle. The lock is iron and the mounts are brass.

ConditionGood with an attractively aged patina on the brass, some oxidation and shallow pitting on the lock, cock, and frizzen, and numerous scattered small nicks on the barrel. The wood is also very good with a crack ahead of the triggerguard, repaired cracks off the upper tang and on the forend, and areas with some filler. Mechanically fine.
