Really interesting rifle, in my opinion its Piedmont NC but others suggest SC, GA, KY, TN and even VA!. It has 6 inches of drop at heel (intended to be shot off bicep) has 43 inch swamped barrel 36-38 caliber (not sure which) Barrel is .975 at breech, .909 21.5 inches from breech and .950 at the muzzle. The rifle has
3 sight bases, I feel sure this idea comes from NC, Jim Webb told me he has seen 2 different Jamestown rifles with 3 sight bases.
The rifle has some incised carving in front of the nose of the comb, some suggested this as a SC feature. There is a period repair on the left side, it appears to be some type of square iron rod that runs vertically through the left panel just behind the lock bolt. I suspect a crack that started behind the side plate. The repair is solid, no movement at all.
