Would like to give this to a kid just starting out.

[rabjr]

If this is against the rules of this site, forgive me. Had this given to me and I have no desire to mess with it. Figured it would be a good fixer upper for someone who has a youngin just getting into muzzle loaders. It is free, I will pay for shipping.

Mostly all there, I see the toe plate, one tenon and one lock bolt is missing. Both underlugs are missing too. It has a 24" .50 cal 1-32 twist barrel and appears to be unfired. Right handed flint.

Bravo! If I weren't so slow on the draw, I would have chimed in on it for my daughter. Good to know that it will go to good use.

BTW, what brand was that critter?

 

[rabjr]

It is a Traditions Tennessee rifle.
