Item Details

Low Estimate2000
High Estimate3000
.30 caliber, 20'' octagon barrel with a very good bore and turned for starter at muzzle. This walnut stocked rifle is German silver mounted and engraved but oddly is not maker marked. Both David Squier and the man from whom he purchased this rifle, Albert C. Mayer attribute it to David Hilliard of Cornish, NH. It very much Hilliard's style and quality but at the end of the day it stands on its own merits regardless of its maker. The barrel shows areas of light scroll engraving at the breech, center and muzzle as well as on the top tang of the buttplate. As mentioned it is German silver mounted with its round patchbox showing a very endearing image of a sailing ship with paddle wheel with tasteful scroll around the periphery. The flat toeline of the stock shows a small round cap box inlaid just to the rear of the triggerguard tang. The toeplate and triggerguard also show tasteful scroll engraving. The wrist of the stock is very nicely checkered with well-executed border, this checkering wraps around the flat toeline and around the top tang. The condition of the gun is quite nice with the barrel showing about 75% original brown finish blending with a smooth brown patina in areas. There is a series of small nicks along the lower right edge for about 3 1/2" just ahead of breech. The walnut stock has a lovely rich color and a beautifully formed cheekrest with shadowline which has an engraved German silver oval at its center. The stock shows lovely figure and retains 95% original finish. The rifle is sighted with a hooded target front with fine bead and long rear which extends over tang and adjusts on a series of adjustment notches filed into the tang. There are no additional holes or alteration of any kind, the rifle is completely honest. The gun comes with an old shooter's box which appears period and is nicely made and incudes a brass powder flask, patch cutter, powder measure and an odd tool that may be a bullet mould cavity cleaner, there are some cast bullets in the case but oddly no mould. Also included is an iron bullet starter with walnut handled brass plunger. The condition of the case is excellent. This is a very fine percussion underhammer rifle. (1C9670-146) {ANTIQUE} [David & Lore Squier Collection] (2000/3000)
