Great "intact" rifle. It's nice to find them that way. I have 2 in the untouched condition, and a 3rd that was broken thru the wrist (was repaired but not covered up) all carved and in original flint. Unfortunately they sometimes do not get the recognition they deserve, I give this one a thumbs up for surviving the C.W. and remaining intact till this day. Great gun, and well deserved spot in the library.

one maker i have yet to get my hands on one of his rifles. they always seem to vanish before i can buy. who owns this or anyone know who has one for sale? great rifle indeed. it would look good on the wall with my other virginia's?
