WITHDRAWN .54 Leman Percussion Rifle

[BigSkyRambler]

This is a real pretty Leman style percussion rifle that I believe was built using a TOTW kit. The browned. 54 barrel is 34" long by 1.05" across flats. Twist 1:66ish. The blonde Tiger Maple stock is striking. One thing you will notice is that during shaping and inletting of stock a split occurred running from the tang, through lock mortice and forward another 6". It was solidly and expertly repaired, but due to light color of wood, it clearly shows. I have read that these kinds of splits are common with Maple and good smith's can leave us none the wiser. Lock and buttplate still in white. LOP is 14". Rifle weighs about 8.5 lbs. A steal at $650 + Shipping.

I have not. It is a Green Mountain barrel, which speaks for itself.
