Came across a 1837 contract musket. Originally a model 1816 H. F. But had a Belgian conversion. Does anyone have any information on a reference of government contracted gunsmiths. I’m trying to identify the gunsmith JM. (See pic) Any insight would be appreciated.
Hello all! Long time muzzleloader hunter here who’s extracted information from the forum over the years. Finally got around to joining. I look forward to detailed discussions and information exchange! Long live the Wender guns!
