I'm considering selling my custom 20 bore Jack Brooks Type G 'Bumford' Carolina Trade Gun. This was the early Trade Gun imported into the Southern ports in the mid 1700's. Built by Jack in 2005. Jack built three of these over the years. I know where one of the others are but not the third. 46" Getz. RE Davis lock. Painted Beech stock and Ink floral design based on the Bumford Gun. All brass is wrought. English style proof marks at breech. (Crown over GP and Crown over V). I have made several videos with it including a spotlight video and they can be seen on my youtube channel. Comes with the letter and receipt Jack sent the original buyer and the picture of him fire bluing the barrel at his shop. I received a letter from the second owner and will pen one for the next owner. Some wear to the ink but otherwise excellent and she shoots and handles beautifully. $3000. Will consider interesting trades, partial trades, etc. I will ship in a wood crate or it can be picked up at the Alabama Kentucky Longrifle Show in January.

watched you shoot that on your channel, hard to believe you would part with it.
