This is a totally American made early 19th century Indian trade gun. The gun has a London imported lock which has been converted from Flintlock to percussion. The barrel is made in three stages and is about .65cal. .The two ramrod pipes are in the classic Indian trade gun barrel shape with no stock entrance pipe. All the brass is American thin sheet brass with the buttplate held on by 5 hand made square head nails. The wrist escutcheon is in a key hole design and held on by 2 square head nails. The sideplate is in the classic Serpentine design with the early feature of the Serpent head facing forward. A really good looking and unique gun.
