FINE INCISED STOCK LANCASTER COUNTY PENNSYLVANIA FLINTLOCK AMERICAN LONG RIFLE
01-28830 | Cal. 45. | Circa early 1800’s.
This attractive Lancaster County flintlock is fit with an unsigned 42″ heavy octagon bbl with punch dot muzzle embellishments, dovetailed brass blade front sight, fine tiny V notch rear sight, and is held in place with 4 brass bbl keys. A Joseph Golcher flint lock with sprays of scroll & line border engravings is nicely fit into the stock. The tiger striped maple stock is checkered at the wrist with a coarse cross-hatch pattern that transitions into a fine checkered triangular panel. The stock is incised with a branching scroll behind the cheek rest, wavy border line embellishments under the cheek rest, and a double line chasing along the bbl keys. A fine line accent engraved German silver starburst and heart plates are tacked on the cheek rest and the later behind the bbl tang. The patchbox is a scroll and simple line engraved pierced 4-piece made of brass with domed lid. The buttplate is of a flatter design with faceted upper tang with the patchbox cover release button located on the top flat. A simple entwined line, chip dot, and cloud embellished toe line plate runs 3 3/8″ from the toe. Faceted brass trigger guard with finger spur tang. 3 faceted ram rod ferrules hold the simple hickory ram rod in place.
