Hi Folks,
I've got an old flintlock here that I'm trying to identify. I'm hoping that one of you might have some idea of who the maker might have been.
First attempt at posting pictures...hopefully this works.
About 5 inches forward of the breech is what at one time was a nicely engraved name. Now all that I can make out is what looks like two Js.
The rifle appears to be a .45ish caliber. the lock is marked "London Warranted". The rifle has quite a few silver inlays and a nice cap box. The cap box has a release button on the toe plate.
I have more pictures of the rifle but will wait to see if the three that I've posted show up.
Thanks in advance for you help.
Paul
