This is a copy of the 1850s Wesson Rifle. The .45 caliber 26" steel barrel, breech plug and bolster are cast into an alloy receiver. Bore bright and sharp. Metal finish on barrel is good with some small scratches. Rear sight is a Marbles replacement. Front sight is snapped off. Shouldn't be too hard to replace. The stock is overall solid, with a stress crack behind patchbox and wrist at receiver. Both more aesthetic than real problems. Receiver has finish loss of paint. Double set triggers. Extra long ramrod for target shooting. These are known as surprisingly accurate rifles. A little TLC and you're good to go. $300 + Shipping.
