Item Details
Low Estimate3000
High Estimate5000
.40 cal., 32” octagon barrel, turned for starter, with a bright excellent bore. The barrel retains about 97% original maker plum brown, there being a bit of light muzzle wear and even fading. There is a simple globe style front sight, currently without insert, rear slot is open and there is an original tang sight in place atop a raised pad on the lightly engraved tang. The barrel is maker inlaid in gold “AG Genez” flanked by light scroll. The patent breech is nicely, deeply engraved and what are likely the owners initials “AP”, are inlaid in gold atop the tang. The lock and hammer show the same nice quality deep open flowing scroll with the hammer chiseled and engraved in a dog’s head fashion. The lockplate is maker marked “Genez” and both are a smooth pewter case-hardened patina. There is a heavy pewter nosecap, lightly engraved triggerplate, ornate lightly engraved German silver Schuetzen style triggerguard that is "quick release" with a knurled hand detachable screw at rear which, when removed, allows the guard to pivot allowing easy access to the single set trigger. The heavy German silver hooked buttplate features acorn finial heel and engraved tang and the winged lock screw sideplate is very stylish with a heart shaped pierced center and scroll engraving. The English walnut stock rates very fine with just the expected minor dings and handling marks from the years and features a generous flared left side shadowline cheekpiece with the checkered panels. The arm is equipped with a single set trigger which functions properly with a crisp lock. The stock does show a 4 1/2” split along its left top edge rearward from the nosecap, it would be an easy repair. What is likely the original, or at least a period, ramrod is included as is a turned hardwood palm rest. August Genez was active in New York City from 1858-1870. This particular rifle is published in The New York State Firearms Trade © Swinney-Rowe, on pages 178-179. A very nice example of Genez’ work, still in a very fine state of condition.
