This gun is somewhat derelict and has seen better days. It is missing the hammer screw and the butt cap but the rest of it is original. The lockplate has beautiful strong markings and so does the barrel. The stock is missing a couple of chunks and is cracked but it still has the original cartouche showing. Even the belt hook is original and the lock functions just fine. I don't know what to make of the carved and stippled decorations on the grip and bottom of the stock, in front of the trigger guard but they are definitely period. My first instinct is to think that they are decorative elements added by a Native American. My guess would be one of the Eastern tribes but I am no expert on Native American design motifs. Whoever removed the butt cap put the screw back in place, go figure! The gun is worth saving, so we will price it cheap in hopes that somebody will enjoy it. SOLD!!
