Thought this little gun might be of interest to some here due to the cheek piece and wooden guard. If anyone has any info they'd like to share on the origins or proofs, I am all ears.

.65 cal smoothbore, 26 3/4" long barrel, 14 and change octagonal at the breech.

I have no idea, which isn’t surprising, but it’s pretty cool. Thanks for posting.

Nice side plate as well as triggerguard. Are there any markings inside the lock?

Sadly not.
