For early war buffs- I have a custom made 1792 US Contract flintlock rifle for sale. 50 caliber octagonal 42" barrel, brass furniture with spring-loaded patchbox and large military Harper's Ferry lock with eagle and US stamping, stock is American straight-grain maple with a light Linseed Oil finish.. these were issued out to state militias during the War of 1812 and thereafter- these were old surplus by the ACW. Asking $775 plus $25 shipping.

Thanks,
Jim Chocole
