Condition

Good Overall Condition. The rifle appears to be missing the the ramrod. The flintlock mechanism does not release once the trigger is impressed, so it may need some adjustment. There appears to be a screw missing on the back of the flintlock bracket. There are some nail holes and a bore hole on the left side behind the bracket. The bone on the buttstock shows some hairlines as well as a chip.
