REV WAR FOWLER AT POULIN'S

Attached video depicts a fowler said to have been used in the Rev War. Interesting background on the original owner in 1775.

Good interesting video. Thanks for posting

Beautiful gun but as interesting as the story is - there is no proof at all on any history of that gun - buy the gun not the story as they say. Beautiful piece though and looks like Poulins will have another incredible auction - they usually get top notch items to sell.

Thank for the share though - its a nicely done video and gives credence that it might be possible to tie that gun to that soldier.
