Blanch Long Gun

[Sgt Okie Homa]

Won this single barrel percussion cap

long gun at a local auction last week, now I'm wondering what's is best for this old gun? It is stamped BLANCH behind the hammer amongst the engraving.

Hi,
First, don't do anything to it. We need better photos of the lock and any names or marks on it. It is English and London made. We need good photos of any barrel marks and the lock.

My apologies folks, posted in the wrong category. Can a moderator move it to percussion firearms and not flintlock.?

Dave, thank you. The stamps shown in the photos are on the underside of the barrel in the forestock area. The word BLANCH, ill try and get a better photo of.
