Who built the smoothbore and when? Have you shot it much? What size roundball will it need? How would this be shipped? Hard case, wood crate?

I would like to know the builder and if you have shot it much. How does it pattern with shot and is it choked at all?

here i'll just post this answer for others also. the builder is just a guy I see at fort over the years. he is from kansas no name builder, regular guy. i have shot this gun only a few shots with RD ball. shoots good. ignition is good lock sparks great. i would drill out the small chambers liner to a 1/16th hole. as i do to all my guns. the gun was only shot before me a couple times as is apparent by the lightly struck frizzen. it is not choked any. straight open bore. the barrel is I believe a colerain i have tested a couple other guns with this barrel and all shot good RD ball for sure. shot loads are typical of any open bore and take load testing. wood to metal fit is good. overall clean inletting on a simple plain gun thanks Rick
