- Lot Description
.32 caliber, 40.25" octagonal pinned barrel with 12" iron tang, secured by 4" screws, running the length of the wrist and terminating at the iron buttplate. Barrel has a 1.25" long silver inlay that is unsigned. 6.75" iron banana patchbox, iron mountings include pistol gripped trigger guard, single screw, flat side plate, butt and toe plates, stock escutcheons, nosecap and ramrod pipes. Unmarked percussion lock, double set triggers, drum bolster, Buckhorn rear and blade front sights. Wood ramrod. An attractive and classic example of an east Tennessee iron mounted rifle with the desirable long tang and banana patchbox that those makers were known for.
Good overall. Barrel and lock with dark, heavily oxidized patina, and some surface corrosion and pitting. Lock functional, but well worn and needs some attention. Bore dirty and corroded with good rifling. Stock about good with major wood loss above lock, behind bolster, as well as some minor loss behind the lock. A 4" crack extends from the lock mortise into the fore-end. Wood loss at barrel pin holes, some void of pins and some pins appearing to have been moved. Fore-end restored from middle pipe to muzzle.Condition
