Help on info. A.S.Bisbing

[kvermilion]

Need some help on some information about this gun. Buddy's great grandfather traded a gallon of whiskey for this in PA. He lived near Blakeslee PA west Pocono Moutains. It has the maker mark but we can find any thing specific A.S. Bisbing it is a side by side rifle double hammer percussion silver inlay. I haven't put a mic on it yet so not sure of the caliber. Not for sale so please don't ask. Just like to see if we can track some history.

Duckduckgo search... Amos S. Bisbing of Tannersville and White Haven Pa. Maker of high quality swivel breech double rifles.

Thanks for the information White Haven is about 8 miles from us, and Tannersville about 20, so this makes sense, but not a swivel breech a great gun though
Thanks for the info.
