Offering a very handsome and practical custom long rifle in 54 caliber. The rifle has a 42" swamped barrel, 7/8" at the muzzle and 1 1/16" at the breech. Bore is in excellent condition, with round bottom rifling and a slow twist. This has been an accurate and easy-loading rifle for me. Barrel and lock are both browned nice and dark. The lock is a Chamber's Siler, sparks plenty and trigger pull is not very heavy for a single.
All brass furniture on a stock with some nice but subtle figure. There are a couple bumps on the wood, but overall very good+. The gun has 1/4 inch of cast-off, 13 3/4 inch LOP, overall 57 inches at just an ounce or two over 8 pounds. The rifle is well balanced, easy to carry and points naturally with just that bit of cast-off.
I believe this is a Chamber's early York gun, but given the stock architecture may be a Virginia, or early Lancaster.
