Desirable B. Bahn & Bro. Cape Girardeau Missouri Half Stock Percussion Rifle

The barrel is marked "B BAHN & BRO CAPE GIRARDEAU MO" on top and is fitted with blade and notch sights. The lock is marked "LEMAN/LANCTR.PA" at the front and has standard Leman scrollwork. It also features a pewter forend cap, double set triggers, and a checkered perch belly stock. The Bahn Brothers, Bernard and George W. Bahn, established a hardware store in 1860 and also manufactured rifles early on.

ConditionVery good with a dark brown blend of patina and faded finish on the barrel, mostly dark patina on the lock, light pitting and oxidation, minor hairline cracks in the stock, some stabilization of the cracking on the left flat, smoothed edges of the checkering, and minor dings and scratches. Mechanically fine when the trigger is set prior to cocking.
