WITHDRAWN REDUCED Fine Leonard Day .54 Jaeger

[BigSkyRambler]

one more (proof of ignorance) question.... How is the barrel attached to the stock? from the side it looks clean, (no pins) something on bottom??

Two pins.

I think I see a trip to Bobby Hoyt in this gun's future. Then it'll be back better and pricier!

It would probably already be on my wall if the barrel was rifled

Yep .62 or if enough in the barrel wall .75 cal round bottom rifling and 1-66 twist, also move the lock to the left side. Nice rifle I have one of Leonards swivel breech rifles in .50 cal and it has a left hand lock, the neat thing about the rifle is it came with a inter changing percussion lock, took me a long time to find one but it is now all mine. Fine smoothbore there even if you need to have it rifled.

Fantastic smoothbore .54 cal Jaeger by master builder Leonard Day, well known for his fine swivel guns. It has a 26” octagon barrel with a bright excellent bore and possibly unfired. This gun could be bored out to .58 and rifled by Bobby Hoyt for less than $200, round trip. The metal surfaces retain about 98% original plum-brown The top flat is engraved “Made by Leonard Day”. It has an R.E. Davis & Co. lock. All fittings are browned. The stock is in very fine to near excellent condition showing some scattered very small dings and minor handling marks,mostly along the sides of the butt and toe line. The wood has a beautiful tiger stripe grain figure with a nicely fitted sliding wooden patchbox cover. The sights consist of a fancy square-notch rear and low profile brass blade front.The lock has double set triggers. A light handy gun by a master builder who is no longer with us. $1950 + Shipping.
