Beschreibung:

An early volunteer’s rifle modeled on the British Pattern 1776 Rifle. Overall length: 44", with 28" long octagonal barrel of .68 caliber bore rifled with seven grooves, key-fastened and with false- or hook-breech. There are vacant holes near muzzle on each side flat of the barrel that once supported a ramrod swivel (purposely removed during the period, as seen with other P1776 rifles). The barrel has a sighted fore-end and rear sight with one fixed and two hinged leaves at breech. The tang of the barrel bears an engraved, stringed bugle horn—the device of an unkown rifle corps, while Tower private view and proof marks are found near the breech on left side. Flat beveled border, engraved lock with crowned GR before the cock and 'MORRIS' across the tail, flat, goose-neck cock with edging, double-fence (water-less), teaspoon-shaped pan, and feather-spring with roller. Figured walnut, full stock (slight bruising) with brass mounts near-identical to those found on the Pattern 1776 rifle, including spur trigger-guard with acorn finial, three wide ramrod pipes (a steel ramrod spring between the fore-pipe and middle pipe), flat “tailed” sideplate, and nose-cap, with heavy, iron ramrod. The butt has a hinged, brass patch-box cover similar to that found on the Pattern 1805 Baker. CONDITION: Light pitting to barrel from original browning and slight brusing to wood, otherwise in very good condition and lock in excellent condition and working order.
