Manufactured by H. E. Leman's factory in Lancaster, PA, c. mid-19th century with the "CONESTOGA/RIFLEWORKS" marking used on some of their "trade quality" guns. "W M" marked behind the trigger guard tang. Includes a note attributing the marking to Lt. Col. William Maynadier.

Fine with gray and brown patina, light oxidation/pitting, chipped hammer, moderate dents and scratches on the stock, and dark aged patina on the brass mounts. The trigger adjustment screw is absent, but the rifle is mechanically fine.
