AFGHAN JEZAIL MUSKET WITH TOWER FLINT LOCK
Afghan Flintlock jezail musket. Decorative bone inlay on stock, with hammered brass decorations and barrel bands. 44 inch barrel, and characteristic curved butt stock. Tower lock with crown over "GR" and British proof mark. Many of these arms were typically equipped with lock mechanisms removed from stolen, captured, or discarded British weapons such as the Brown Bess during the First Anglo-Afghan War. Rifle is in typically worn condition. Mechanically inoperable, with missing trigger, and loose lock, but would serve well as a historic decoration or conversation piece.
