John Manton flintlock shotgun

[rmefbowhunter]

Good morning . I have shot percussion muzzleloaders off and on for upland game , but now have a John Manton 16 ga double barrel to try out. I am working on fixing a period case and accessories for the gun which I will use this fall for pointed sharptails, Huns, and pheasants. I'm not worried about bag limits as you might guess. Best to all,

Greetings and welcome from the Pacific Northwest!

Welcome from Canada! I have only test fired this double percussion. Not a Manton and 15 gauge (advertised as 12), but a beautiful little gun for a total of $300 CDN at online auction. Had to replace a back site and Ren wax to bring her to life. Hope Montana wildlife cooperate!

Yes, I bet it will take a bit more lead. What fun.
