50 caliber Lancaster inspired rifle
« on: March 05, 2022, 10:24:19 PM »
Hello!  I have a recently finished Lancaster style rifle that id like to ship off. The rifle is stocked in a grade 3 curly maple, weighing in at just over 7 pounds. The rifles total length is 57.5 inches, with a 14 inch length of pull and a 4 inch drop. The barrel is a 42 inch green mountain 7/8' barrel with a 50 caliber bore. The lock is a large R.E. Davis colonial style lock with some good spark to it. I am asking $2,000.00 for the rifle, after a horrific debacle with ground shipping on my last rifle I will now be shipping my guns in wooden crates (some Kibler crates, some handmade). Feel free to contact me with any questions at (916)-225-2416

Hi there, no the barrel is not swamped, it is a 7/8" straight barrel

I may be interested. What state are you in? I am taking some trips and may be able to drive and pick it up. Thank you

I was quite impressed and ready to buy it, when i noticed the rear sight placement. My old eyes need the sight to be further forward. My flint Leman Trade Rifle has the sight 9" from the breech and it's a bit difficult to use. Next time I'll go with 10 or 11 inches. I'm guessing this one is about 7" from the breech. This is a really good deal and like to own it, but that rear sight wouldn't work for me.

I can always relocate the rear sight if need be! the old dovetail would be filled in with a fitted piece of brass bar stock and filed to match the barrel, let me know!
