New, unfired large Siler flintlock. Rifle was just converted from percussion to flintlock. Engraved patchbox and side plate. Engraved by CLA artist Mike Roby. Bore in bright, shiny condition. Fully functional. Made in 1980. $1800 plus actual shipping.

Is the barrel swamped or straight?
 
The barrel is octagon to round. The octagon portion measures 0.880" and the round portion measures 0.870". 7/8" is 0.875". Essentially straight. 1 in 56" twist rate.
 
With all the recent attention, this is one of the rifles. Made by the late David Williams of Riverton, WY. Converted to flintlock by me. Engraved by Mike Roby.

Reduced to $1700 plus actual shipping.
