1742 Pattern Brown Bess Flintlock Musket with Nose Cap
I have a Military Heritage 1742 Pattern Brown Bess Flintlock with Nose Cap for sale. The prices including shipping is $500.00.I purchased this about 7 months ago, received it and used it for practicing shouldering and getting a sight picture. Right after I bought - I found my dream Brown Bess and letting this one go.
It is in the the same condition when I received - I cleaned and did not drill the touch hole - so I would consider it in original condition.
Here is the description from the Military Heritage site on this particular weapon:
The reproduction we offer here has a 46 inch .75 calibre barrel is made of tempered seamless gun steel (type:BS970 no.080M40) with a tight breech plug. The lock is made with strong durable springs and has a case-hardened frizzen (hammer) that throws good sparks. The musket's total length is 63 inches and weighs 11 pounds. We use a industrial case-hardening factory process that makes sparking both more reliable and longer lasting. Presently no other musket provider uses this technique.
