Shotgun bead - no rear sight - too bad it has curly maple for the stock - Mantons all had English Walnut. Nicley done, though, but the maker over-sanded the comb - pretty dishy. It's a smoothbore, not a rifle and most definitely a flintlock. The tubes are quite heavy at the muzzle.
; Was out testing my Bro's 14 bore Manton percussion gun last summer - no chokes, yet running mid 70% patterns at 26 yards. We were happy.
