Item Description: Translate description
Cal. .38 caliber. NSN. 51" overall. 36" octagonal barrel. Pictured and described on pages 112-113, "The Fur Trade", author Milton Von Damm: "This gun is a very high quality sporting rifle in original flintlock condition. this fine gun was probably made by George Tryon as a custom order, possibly during the slow market demand for guns following the War of 1812. Tryon used several patch box styles and the one on this gun, with its pineapple finial also suggests an early date, possibly circa 1812-1825. There is no known association with the fur trade and it did not see much use. It is simply a beautiful Kentucky style rifle probably made for someone in the West. The lock has a roller bearing and is marked TRYON. The elaborate patch box features an engraved elk or deer and has a pineapple finial. The barrel is marked TRYON PHILAD and is decorated with a punched design. The bottom of the buttplate extends all the way to the rear of the trigger guard, and, like all the brass furniture, is generously engraved. An unusual mark, "A-N 1273", is on the top of the buttplate and barrel. The checkered stock is maple and shows little wear. This gun has a unique silver cheek plate engraved with the scene of an Indian being shot." CONDITION: very good overall. PROVENANCE: Lifelong Collection of author Milton Von Damm. (01-24775/JS). ANTIQUE. $3,000-5,000.
