Recently inherited a dozen of these brass Buttplates & Triggerguards.

What school would these fall under?

Thanks,
Jeff

only a guess but the trigger guard looks like track's #tg-e-1-b which they say is a berks.

The guard is for a double set trigger and both are 1780-90-ish. Could work for York and Lancaster rifles of that period.

The buttplate could be used on some of the Sheetz or northern Virginia styles.

Very versatile with a little bending to make the rail stand further or close to the wrist.
