Item Description: Translate description
.44 cal, 36 1/4'' octagon barrel with an oxidized bore showing good rifling throughout. The metal surfaces have mostly toned to a deep plum-brown patina showing scattered old oxidation staining and some honest erosion around the drum and nipple from firing. There are some light foliate motifs along the top barrel flat and lockplate, the center of the plate marked ''HUNTER''. Brass hardware consists of heavy nosecap, dual faceted ramrod thimbles and tailpipe, thin triggerguard with single rear spur, crescent buttplate with toe plate, rectangular sideplate and a nice pierced and foliate embellished patchbox. The arm is further decorated with nice German silver motifs throughout including wavy plates and arrows along the sides of the forend, fleur-de-lis and crescent moons along bottom forend and left side of the buttstock (one inlay missing here) and the left side buttstock also with a dainty scant cheekpiece plate and classic folky American eagle. The stock is curly maple and rates about very good exhibiting a loose chip at the toe still retained by the plate, 8'' sliver missing along the right forend and some lengthy older repaired cracks along forend and around lockplate. The stock otherwise shows lovely figure and grain throughout. A simple hickory ramrod is present and the rifle is sighted with fine v-notch rear sight and silver blade front. The arm is equipped with a straight front firing trigger and set rear which does set though the hammer does not hold. A very attractive rifle with classic and endearing folky inlays. (13B12003-9) {ANTIQUE} (1200/1800)
