SOLD REDUCED Antique Percussion Smooth Rifle

[BigSkyRambler]

Reduced This neat smoothbore could tell some tales. Unsure of how it came about. The 36.5" barrel is octagonal. Likely rifled at one time. Rear sight dovetail filled. Mics at .585. Visible machine marks from boring out. Walnut stock may be of more modern vintage using antique hardware. Stable crack pinned on underside behind ramrod entry pipe. The lock was originally flintlock and expertly converted to percussion. LOP is 13.5 ". Single trigger. Weighs a hair over 7 lbs. Could be dandy small game gun. $300 + Shipping.

Any makers marks? Is nipple removable and in good shape, and does the lock work properly? Thanks!

No. Yes/kind of. And yes.

Photo of nipple. #11 caps too small. Nipple needs to be turned down a bit (drill and file). Maybe fresh out slightly mushroomed hole.
