Flintlock Fusil
.80 caliber, 36" barrel, no S/N. An unusual and interesting flintlock fusil with 36" barrel, well marked with British proofs. The lock of early form is stepped at rear with swan-neck cock. Frizzen likely replaced. Regulation type brass furniture appears to be possibly American in manufacture. Stock of typical British form is unmarked. Barrel does have bayonet lug and high comb. An interesting fusil with some American appearing features.
Condition:
In good condition except for a 12" long split on left side extending into the side plate but not yet loose and one other 12" loss on left side forward of 2nd ramrod pipe. Lock has deep even-aged brown, as does barrel.
