Caliber .80 bore, Barrel length 42-1/4". The lock on this flintlock is marked "Dublin Castle" with a "G.R." and a crown. This rifle is all original and untouched. Features a brass butt plate, trigger guard and side plate, four brass retaining rod thimbles and an original type ramrod. The one piece walnut stock is in very good condition with the usual dings and is in the Brown Bess style. Features a late model third type side plate and an ordnance style lock with a non-regulation trigger guard and no arsenal marks. Missing the sling swivels. All hardware is a soft original patina and the last 4” of the barrel shows evidence of bayonet wear. This is a beautiful untouched example.
