Measures 14" long with 7 1/2" .65 caliber smoothbore octagon-to-round
barrel. Engraved decoration where the barrel steps down to round. Gun very heavy
and very "thick" overall. All brass furniture with the exception of
the iron barrel band. Stock with checkered butt and incise carved rays emanating
from the brass buttcap. Stock overall excellent with nice smooth patina and just
one very old minor hairline under the lock, not effecting soundness. Incised
carved decoration on the underside of the forestock. Overall completely
untouched! Iron belt hook opposite the lock. The gun does not stay at cock but
could easily be repaired. The ramrod is a modern replacement. Nice example of
this novel lock style/ ignition system! AR-N2BK. #52373: $2800
