This Miroku Charleville copy shows lots of handling marks, but little signs of firing. Likely a reenactor weapon. The flint itself is utterly useless and frizzen shows few strikes. Bore is bright and shiny with a small area near muzzle that needs(?) smoothed out. Strong lock. Exterior of barrel has areas of staining, but no corrosion to speak of. A good rubbing with oil and steel wool is in order. Wood shiws numerous small bumps and scratches, but no cracks. $1200 + Shipping.
