The barrel also has a German silver blade front sight and scroll engraving. The interesting lock has scroll engraving on the tail and a bestial engraved hammer. The side plate has a Native American smoking a pipe reclined against a tree trunk and scrollwork at the rear. Some of the other German silver furniture has scroll or floral engraving, and the trigger guard has a pineapple finial. The trigger has an attractive pierced scroll design. The stock is nicely figured curly maple.
