This rifle is unmarked and is 55? in overall length with a 38.5? heavy octagon barrel having a good .40 caliber bore. The barrel is secured to the walnut stock with a single wedge through oval German silver escutcheons. The stock has a German silver triggerguard, a crescent-shaped buttplate and a tailpipe, with a pewter forend tip. The patchbox, triggerguard and back-action lock are lightly scroll engraved. The barrel has a German silver front blade sight and a very nicely shaped full buckhorn rear sight. The stock has two screwed-on copper plates at the wrist to repair an old break and is missing a small piece of wood on both sides of the tang (1/2? long x 3/4? long) directly behind the patent hook breech. The rifle has double set triggers that need adjustment as the hammer does not properly release. The barrel and lock have a dark gray patina with several small dings at the breech. The German silver pieces show light age toning. The stock has a repaired grain crack in front of the nipple and has two other short cracks that require no attention. The stock retains most of a well done oil refinish and shows normal light scratches. A wooden ramrod is secured by two pipes. This antique hunting rifle looks very nice and will make a great wall hanger. The consignor purchased this rifle directly out of Tesuque Indian Pueblo, New Mexico.
This is an antique rifle and transfers with no federal restrictions.
