I went back to look at it to compare some features with another Fordney and POOF! It was gone. Was it stamped on the barrel ? It was an interesting gun.

Nice rifle, but rather awkward "professional" reconversion to flint. Shelby Gallien

I had included some inappropriate items in the initial post, and was notified of this,so I asked that the post be pulled.   I have some newer photos, and will post them and (pics of a combination gun) in a separate post.  This was my bad and I should have paid more attention to what was in the photos.
