Unsigned but of distinct Spanish form with two stage octagon to round barrel with beaded slightly cannon muzzle and wedding ring at girdle. Brass inlays on top 3 of the octagonal flats. Patilla style miquelet lock with half cock and grooved pan face. Ramrod, possibly the original, retained by single ferrule with engraved bands. Brass furniture is engraved with florals. Iron trigger guard. Wrist with a brass inlaid grotesque. Buttcap with grotesque en suite. CONDITION: Very good, with brass having a pleasant dark untouched look, while iron has acquired a smooth chocolate patina. Wood has some handling marks and dings but is free of breaks. Right brass stirrup appears to be period repaired. Action works appropriately, bore is very good. EW
