Antique Mid-1800s HALF STOCK .34 Caliber Percussion American LONG RIFLE HOMESTEAD/HUNTING Rifle with DOUBLE SET TRIGGERS

Description:
Antique Mid-1800s HALF STOCK .34 Caliber Percussion American LONG RIFLE    

HOMESTEAD/HUNTING Rifle with DOUBLE SET TRIGGERS

Here we present an antique Half Stock Percussion Long Rifle, made circa the late 1850s to the early 1860s. Its stout octagonal barrel is in .34 caliber, large enough to take small to medium sized game or to defend the homestead against unwanted aggression. Rifle manufacture in the mid-to-late 19th Century was rapidly changing over from thousands of craftsmen all over the United States and on the Frontier making and selling their wares, to the large factories with standardized assembly lines and modern manufacturing techniques. Many makers’ names of the so-called Kentucky long rifles have been lost over time. This is one such example.

This rifle features a large trigger guard and is designed to be used as a pistol grip. This rifle features double set triggers that provide an extremely light and crisp break. The barrel is 33-5/8 inches long and octagonal with a rifled .34 caliber bore.

The overall condition is good. Original patina. Strong action, fully functioning set triggers. The bore is dim with visible rifling. Solid stock. The toe has been repaired at some point in time.

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.

Barrel is 33-5/8 inches.

Caliber: .34 Percussion
