Thats a 1726-1758 flontlock to percussion smoothebore rifle 31in barrel whats the value of it if thats whats it is

 

[Comfortably_Numb]

Some sort of European mitary musket that has had the stock heavily modified. I doubt it has much value in its modified condition.

Turn it into a canoe gun.

It's half way there.

Hang on- some European armies had elite “ jager “ corps riflemen, could that be an issue rifle for them? Need way more pictures. Close up of the lock, muzzle end of barrel. Any pictures of stampings would help.

 

[florkinliege]

get an overall picture of the entire gun, then flip it over. Are there any markings? Decent pictures are helpful.

Looks like someone did a real butcher job on it

Welcome fellow muzzleloading enthusiast.

I see now, that gun is whacked up. Phone wouldn’t work right for me. I may be worth something for parts, especially if the barrel isn’t rusted out.

 

[Sam squanch]

“It” may be worth something. I’m not.

Looks like it may have started life as a French club butt, more close-up pictures would help.

What does the lock look like?

 

[Grayrock Volunteer]

It appears to be a heavily sporterized Austrian M1844 Kammerbuchse that was percussion altered. With a photo of the lock and bolster it will be possible to tell where it was altered. Value is essentially in parts due to the modification of the stock.
