This rifle weighs 20 pounds 10.6 ounces. It has an ornate signature on top of the barrel with "Joseph" as the first name and unclear last name (crisp but too ornate). The upper right flat near the vent has "W. PANNEPACKER." William Pannepacker (Pennypacker) Sr. and Jr. were barrel makers in Mohnton, Pennsylvania, on Wyomissing Creek. The barrel is equipped with a brass blade front sight and an adjustable target notch rear sight with ornate finial, and it also has ring patterns on the muzzle. The Joseph Golcher lock has scrollwork patterns. It is equipped with set triggers. The stock has false striped figure along its length, German silver fish as barrel pin escutcheons, relief carving and molding along the forend, broad base on the ramrod entry pipe, an ornate brass wear plate on the bottom ahead of the lock, engraved side plate, German silver ovals on the wrist, engraved silver thumb plate, two silver accents on the comb, fancy patch box with rooster/turkey head style finial and fish engraved on the door, toe patch box release button, hunter's star on the cheekpiece which has three incised lines on the edge, a half-moon with face below the cheekpiece, and incised scroll carving along the left side of the butt.

Very good, with mottled gray and brown patina and some mild pitting on the iron, aged patina on the furniture, general minor marks and scratches, large chip forming between the barrel tang and lock, crack in the bottom of the stock ahead of the triggers, thin tension crack at the rear lock screw, and minor dings and dents. Mechanically fine (replaced top jaw). Overall an interesting and impressive late flintlock rifle.
