Re: Manton 16 ga with a question

I am pretty sure this gun has been beautifully converted to percussion. The wooden inserts above the lock mortise at the back the standing breech, the cutaway in both lock plates where a pan would have been. I think to, that the breech plugs are replacements so cones can be fitted. A lovely old gun. The one I have has had a drum and nipple conversion, much more basic approach.
