Found an old flintlock

[Argentine mauser]

Hey guys! I was watching an auction and this came up for sale. It looked like something so I got it. It's a bad habit! Anyway.......
42" 20 gauge, walnut. On the top of the barrel is a very faded " Annley London that I could just make out. I can't seem to find much about it. Any thoughts?

Nice looking 1770's English made fowler. Looks like it is in good shape.

It is. There's a bit of broken stock at the muzzle and the frizzen is way soft...otherwise.

A photo of the barrel profile will help a lot.
Frozen has been resoled.
Very nice though.

Es it has. It will spark a little, not much though. I put a bit of powder in the pan and it took a few tries. I wonder if I can remove that and harden the original frizzen?

It has a standing breach even though it’s a pretty basic import Fowler, That’s pretty cool , got all the important features and not much fluff. The side plate not being engraved is interesting to me too. Once again great gun!

“The side plate not being engraved is interesting to me too.”

Especially since all the other brass parts are engraved.

And....the stock has an angle to it!!
