Description:

This rifle has no visible markings and has a seven-groove rifled barrel with traditional blade and notch sights, a blank in a second rear sight dovetail further back, and dot accents by the latter. The lock is tripped by adjustable double set triggers. The furniture is brass and mostly plain aside from the four-piece patch box which has some simple border engraving and a bow and pair of arrows. A plain silver oval inlay is on the wrist. The stock has attractive incised double line molding along the forend terminating in scrolls, a raised floral pattern at the barrel tang, incised scrolls and lower molding on the butts, and a shallow cheek piece followed by an intricate incised scroll design.

Rating Definition:

Fair. The rifle appears to be in original flint configuration with repairs made to the neck of the cock, dark aged patina, and extensive heavy pitting visible on the entire lock. The barrel also exhibits a dark blue-brown coloration overall, moderate pitting, and some brighter oxidation concentrated on the breech section. The furniture has dark aged patina and repairs, including on the sideplate, trigger guard finial, and entry pipe. The refinished stock is also good and has some chips and slivers absent, some stabilized cracks in the forend, and distinct carving and molding. Mechanically fair.
