Time of the Revolutionary War in America. Measures 7 1/2" long with 2 3/8" .45 caliber screw barrel, with lug on underside for removal, and cannon-turned muzzle. Breech with English proofs, forged integrally with frame and trigger strap. Frame, hammer, backstrap and breech have delicate scroll engraved with makers ribands Barbar/ London on the frame! All metal smooth and clean, in remarkably well-preserved condition. Mainspring apparently broken, but all else is mechanically fine. Stock with relief carved shell or fish-tail detail at barrel tang, overall about perfect! Very nice little gun by a well known and desirable maker. AR-YYK. #52326: $1850
