This is a neat little .45 halfstock flintlock rifle made by Hopkins and Allen. Interestingly, their name has been overstamped on barrel over something that appears to end with a W. Its 25.25" barrel has a really SLOW twist. I got 1/4 turn in 24" on all three trys. The rifle appears to be unfired. Bore is pristine and clean. LOP is 13.5". Rifle weighs about 7 lbs. Handy little rifle. It has some issues, so drastically cutting price. First and foremost, the internals need work. Upon pulling trigger, it catches on the half **** nitch every time. Second, the escutcheons cover the pin to remove barrel. Easily remedied by taking them out, drilling holes and allowing pin to be driven out without removing them. $300 + Shipping.
