I've had several of these child size muskets before. They are typically modelled after the India Pattern Brown Bess and date to the early 1800s. This one in particular is interesting because the lock is a British lock, probably from a dragoon pistol but the pan is a captured French brass pan, probably from the AN XIII pistol. A souvenir from the Revolution or Napoleonic Wars. It is about 50 1/2" total length with a 35" barrel. It's about .62 caliber. Barrel has badly worn through at the muzzle. I assume after some work it would be shootable. A neat piece as it is. $450 plus shipping from 24426. I accept PayPal, cash app, Venmo, Zelle, check or money order.
