Made circa 1850s. 65 caliber with a 34” barrel. Very neat gun with a lot of character and signs of Indian use.  The stock is heavily decorated with brass tacks. . This gun shows heavy use as well as period modifications like a shortened barrel and conversion to percussion. This gun has the enlarged trigger guard with the serpentine lock plate which is typical of most Indian trade muskets.
