Engraved Flintlock American Long Rifle

This 1830s-1840s era rifle has an illegible signature on the top of the barrel and an lockmaker's stamp on the lock. The patch box is reminiscent of the Lancaster School's daisy patch box from the earlier Golden Age of Kentucky rifles. The rifle also has standard Kentucky style fixed sights, a plain trigger, floral pattern lock, engraving on the long toe plate, a silver inlay with floral pattern and dash engraving on the left side of the butt, low cheek piece with molded edge, attractively shaped comb with Roman nose profile, and some basic molding along the forend of the highly figured maple stock.

ConditionFair as reconverted to flintlock. The lock is functional, but the vent is too far right and partially obscured by the pan. The iron surfaces display gray and brown patina, and there is heavy pitting localized at the breech. The brass has an attractive aged patina. The refinished stock is good and has some faint cracks, chipping (primarily around the lock inlet), vibrant flame figure, and scattered minor scratches and dings. The engraving patterns are clear.
