Item Description: Translate description
Two stage, tapered barrel with swamped muzzle and brass teardrop sight on top. Indistinct makers mark stamped on bottom of breech and a faceted brass ferrule attached to bottom near muzzle. Barrel previously had a percussion drum mounted on right side of breech. Stock of partially figured fruit wood and carved around barrel tang with an elaborate floral design in relief on a stippled ground. The curled iron trigger is present, as well as the engraved brass trigger guard, pierced sideplate, and buttplate. The left side of the buttstock shows an oval shaped relief cheekpiece and simple incised carving on both sides. CONDITION: Barrel retains a heavy, brown patina with some areas of corrosion, especially around breech. Stock shows losses around lock and to both sides of forend. Brass furniture very good, retaining a dark, unpolished patina. This would be a worthwhile restoration project for someone interested in having an early fowler that clearly shows early American influence on early American rifles and fowlers. PROVENANCE: Purchased from Richard Wagner.Barrel Length: 41"Caliber/Bore: .65 SmoothboreFFL Status: AntiqueManufacturer: EuropeanModel: FowlerSerial Number: NSN
