Composite Doglock Wall Gun
.75 caliber. 55.5" octagonal barrel. NSN. Heavily oxidized metal, iron and brass mountings, hardwood stock, possibly beech. Single shot muzzleloading flintlock wall piece with a dog lock, barrel secured by sheet brass straps that are tacked in place, no buttplate, a crude iron triggerguard, no side plate and an old ramrod. The three-screw dog lock is marked POOLE with initials that appear to read "I.N." prior to the last name. No "Poole" from the era of dog lock actions could be found in any available references. The gun appears to be an old composite assembly with the barrel and lock likely from different guns and somewhat crudely stocked into its current configuration. Nominally 72" in overall length. {ANTIQUE} Please Note: Due to size and weight extra shipping will apply.
This lot is located in Cincinnati.

Fair. Bore dark, dirty and pitted with the muzzle showing significant damage. Metal heavily oxidized and pitted with some old applied blue visible. Mechanically functional lock.
