Hello everyone, I just joined and wanted to share a gun that was handed down. I have family history in the Civil and Revolutionary War. The below was passed down and I'm having a hard time identifying this muzzle load. I believe it's a twin to a dueling pistol set. There are no identifying marks except the # 14 and letters BP. This is a very ornate gun with metal inlay in the handle and beautiful ornate swirls on the barrel. There is rumor in my family that this twin gun was shared between my ancestor and a General in the Civil War and the other is out there somewhere. Any help with identification and era would be wonderful.
