Item Details
Description
.40 caliber, 42" octagonal to round barrel. Blade front sight and notched rear sight. Brass furniture with walnut stock that has been enhanced to mimic tiger stripe maple. Fleur-de-lis design behind the lock mortise. Nice clam shell carving behind the tang. Incised lines hi-lighting the features of the rifle. Plain rifle with no patchbox. The barrel has a nice dark brown patina with sharp and crisp lines. The barrel and lockplate have been reconverted back to flint. Overall a very nice piece of true folk art. George Weiker worked 1800-1808 in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. This is a typical classical Bucks County Rifle.
