Re: muzzle loader at auction

Definitely a percussion nipple, so cap-lock, igniting through a central hole in the rim.
I believe the first Maynard breechloaders were the same & had similar tech. to the Gallagher Carbines, but with easier extraction of the "case".
That it is shotgun/rifle combination, is icing on the cake.
Cool!
