Flintlock Militia Musket .69 cal. by A.W. Spies
Description: <<<SOLD>>>>A very good flintlock militia musket of .69 cal, 44” barrel with an oxidized bore. The sideplate and unsigned barrel of this re-converted flint musket are toning to a mottled dull gray-brown patina with oxidized moderate oxidation spots of overall. The lockplate displays a brown patina with spots of light pitting and is marked “A.W. SPIES / WARRANTED” ahead of the cock with light foliate engraving, while the barrel is marked with a sunken “V” proof mark. The brass bands, triggerguard and buttplate have aged to a pleasing mustard yellow patina. The smooth American black walnut straight grip stock rates very good plus with a few narrow chips in the ramrod channel and scattered light scratches and impact marks from the years. The barrel tang screw is a later replacement, the lock remains strong if not crisp, and a button-head ramrod is included. Adam W. Spies was a prolific gunsmith and dealer in New York City during the early nineteenth century.Check my inventory of rare grips, unusual gun parts, barrels and holsters. Shipping may be higher than stated as shippers raise their prices twice year without notice! When buying a gun always have it examined by a competent gunsmith before shooting. To buy a gun from me you must get a direct email for me, with details, and shipping cost. We don’t have a web site .I prefer money orders or a check. Item ships when funds come in. If you can only pay with a card let me know. I try to keep guns affordable, which means I make less money than most dealers. You won’t get altitude sickness, or nose bleed, with my prices! I consistently have the best selection of older guns If you attempt to buy, you must still contact us for details . Best to email to buy. Sometimes a local person can stop buy and purchase before the gun is removed. Sometimes not home to get calls. Some guns are required shipment to a gun dealer near you for a transfer to you when it arrives. Otherwise many older or black powder guns ship to your door. With the widest selection of older guns at great prices, We don’t have a store, and sell on the internet only. I’m easy to get along with. Thank You. SOLD Antique: Yes |
