It is an American longrifle made in the style of Lancaster Pennsylvania in around 1776, but a bit fancier than most of the originals.

It's 54 caliber with a 1-66 twist. 44" long swamped barrel. Maple stock and a Jim Chambers golden Age lock. The gun weighs 9 pounds exactly. It's 60" long and has a 14 inch L.O.P.

I have yet to zero it in, but I will tomorrow. I'll adjust the sights to shoot dead on at 75 yards.
It engraved with the battle cry of the American Revolution. "No king but king Jesus"

The Americans that fought that war decided that they would not tolerate the tyranny of the English government of the day.
It was not another government they fought against, it was their own government!
There's a lot to think about from that period of history, --- isn't there?
