CONDITION: Fine as a flintlock reconversion. The consignor indicated he did not know precisely when the barrel was
relined but noted that the rifle was still being shot in competition in the 20th century. The barrel and lock exhibit an even applied brown finish/patina and some minor oxidation and pitting. The brass and silver have attractive aged patinas, distinct engraving, and mild wear. The stock is also fine and has minor professional restoration work by Louie Parker primarily by the breech/lock, stunning carving, beautiful figure, and generally light scratches and marks. Mechanically fine.
Estimate: 35,000 - 55,000
