Southern Halfstock
« on: October 07, 2009, 06:19:14 PM »
Need help with this rifle. No name or initials on barrell. Its not mine and I haven't seen this rifle in 20 years and my father took these photo's for me this week. I would like to find out where it probably came from if I can. It was collected in Kentucky years ago.

Got to be late, upper E. Tennessee looks to me. Beyond that, I will defer to the more knowledgeable on here.

Very nice rifle!

That is a very nice looking rifle.  I just love that long - long tang.  I agree that it is an east Tennessee gun.  I'm sure many people on this site will be eager to help you with the rifle.   Regards

I agree, East Tennessee or close thereto.  Up in the hills, the makers sometimes didn't pay attention to what side of the state line they were on.
