Interesting Restock or Parts gun?
« on: February 18, 2023, 09:42:08 PM »
The below rifle features an octagon to round barrel “smooth bore”
Warranted verity lock.

Any one see this patch box before or trigger guard??

Don’t worry, I’m not gonna try and fix it restore it👍

Could be a York gun. Schreyer built at least one rifle that had much the same patch box finial. Architectural profile fits the York pattern also. No signature? Nice gun and well worth having. Thank you for showing it here; much appreciated!

Barrel is not original to the rifle maker… looks like a parts gun or restock.


There are signs of an old restoration:
