Any ideas as to the age?

[Dave K]

My opinon puts it in the 1780-1800's.

[D. Taylor Sapergia]

I concur with Dave K.  It's amazing when you see such a good gun - original and in shooting shape - for less than the price of a contemporary one of the same quality.

Please pardon the beginner's question, but is it normal for the locks to be made in two different areas? Is it possible that one lock is a replacement?

[Dave B]

Tuffy,
The locks are a matched pair original to the gun. One inscription is the possibly the Maker(right lock) the other is the location of where it was made. It is not unusual for the french to do this sort of thing. Does any one have a copy of Dur Stockel sp? to check this out?
