(1/1)

410-er:
Anyone have info on this muzzleloader?One is coming up at a sale and I have no clue about them other than it a percussion muzzleloader.
I'm new here and asked this question on another forum and got deleted.Thought maybe someone here could help.If I'm in violation of some rule on here,I appologise.

msmith:
Sellers book has James O Robson, Buffalo New York 1850-1880.As Rector & Robson 1850 -1853.Someone may have more.

Curt J:
I owned a very nice J. O. Robson rifle a few years ago.  He was among the better New York State makers.  It is now 11:25 PM here and I need to get to bed, but I have more information on Robson.  I'll try to get back with it soon.

410-er:
Turns out to be a VERY heavy barreled 41 cal. percussion that was missing some screws and a crack.Barrel was octigon and about 1 1/2" from end it was round.Probably if you went across the flats it would have been 1 1/4".Brought $975 :o Thanks for the help guys!
