Stephen F. Austin Longrifle

[FF1612]

Hello all, I'm curious if anyone knows of any rifles that can be attributed to being owned by Stephen F. Austin. I'm curious as the only thing I have found is a painting where he is depicted with a kentucky style longrifle. I have a great curiosity in this as Austin is known as a personal friend of my girlfriends ancestor Henry William Munson of which I can find no trace of his rifles either and I'd like to replicate them, figuring Stephen F Austin's rifles would be the next closest bet. Thanks all.

At a cursery glance, I believe it's plausible for the rifle he was painted with in 1833 to be an M1819 Hall Rifle. The rifle was patented in 1811 (according to Wikipedia) and remained in production until the 1840's

There is a similarity between the butts of both rifles as well as the decorative trigger guard.

Other than that I couldn't find any references to personal ownership.
