Lancaster,

this rifle is in surprisingly good shape!
Do you think it is original, not re-polished or reworked?
Nice wood, too.
Now if she shoots straight and the trigger is "workable", I'd certainly would keep her.

"if she shoots straight" - its like the old time marriage ceremony, no kissing before

we see it as a fact here that the rifle was re-polished by a master gunmaker because it was his own. its in such a shape that you fear to touch it in the first moment but I wonder if it looks 150 years old again when start to shoot it.
the rifle will be a good deal in fact a third of what the Jäger needle fire rifle start to sell but by no means a bargain. the money was not in the budget for this year and I am very sure it will be missed in the wrong moment after.

for gentleman who have never see the needle rifle in action
