William G. Shreckengost Halfstock
« on: November 21, 2012, 09:50:36 PM »
Halfstock with locked marked "James B. _____son  Pittsburgh, PA"
Anyone know who the full last name is?  This gun has alot of Bedford look
to it.  Rifle is plain, but barrel and tang are nicely engraved.  38" 32 cal.
Bore is excellent. Faux stripe.

Dear Mr. Suzkat,
  Check "The Longrifles of Western PA"; Rosenberger and Kaufmann:
  James Brown and Sons ( Enterprise Gun Works 1875-1883 ). Listed under Pittsburgh Gunsmiths, Gun-Barrel Mfg's, and Selected Hardware Dealers.
  Nice, plain Shreck there...I like it ;D

That didn't take long.  That's surely it.  Thanks Mr. Wog! ;D
