The late percussion rifle had everything going for it - quality all round. Charles Lancaster produced some of the best
The arguments/discussions pro/con breechloading went on for years, especially where rapid reloading was less of an issue - live pigeon shooting etc.

Interesting the number 2 on the barrels, usually one of a pair but clearly not in this case

The shallow vee with the fold flat sights is a nice touch, as is the earlier straight stock with finger rest

Is there a bore size under the barrels? 32? - I have always been interested how his "oval" bore measured

Very nice
