Description: THIS IS AN ATTACTIVE CONTEMPORARY RECREATION OF A CLASSIC SOUTHERN STYLE OR PO BOY LONG RIFLE, CIRCA 1845. THE .45 CALIBER RIFLED BARREL IS STAMPED W.M. LARGE, JJJJ AND L. BILL LARGE IS KNOWN TO HAVE BEEN A MAKER OF CONTEMPORARY MUZZLE LOADERS, BARRELS AND OTHER PARTS DURING THE PERIOD FROM THE MID SIXTIES TO THE MID EIGHTIES. BILL IS MOST REMEMBERED FOR THE QUALITY OF HIS BARRELS... THE 39 1/4" BARREL IS ONLY 13/16" ACROSS THE FLATS. THE BORE IS EXCELLENT WITH NO ISSUES. THE SINGLE SET, ADJUSTABLE TRIGGER IS WONDERFULLY PRECISE. THE NICELY FIGURED FULL LENGTH WALNUT STOCK HAS A LENGTH OF PULL OF 13 1/4". THIS RIFLE WEIGHS JUST 7 1/2 POUNDS AND IS SO WELL BALANCED THAT IT FEELS LIGHTER... INTERESTINGLY, THE TRIGGER GUARD AND BUTT PLATE APPEAR TO BE MADE OF HAND FORGED IRON. OVERALL EXELLENT LIKE NEW CONDITION WITH NO ISSUES. WONDERFUL ARCHETECTURE WITH FINE, CORRECT FIT AND FINISH. WISH I KNEW WHO MADE IT. BET THIS RIFLE IS A TACK DRIVER WITH THE RIGHT LOAD. HAVE SEEN ENOUGH OF THESE CONTEMPORARY MADE LONG RIFLES TO IDENTIFY AMATUER VS. PROFESSIONAL WORK. THIS ONE LOOKS LIKE IT WAS MADE BY A PROFESSIONAL GUNSMITH, WHO ALSO GOT THE ARCHETECTURE RIGHT... I am including with this rifle, a custom made posibles bag with patch knife, and a set of powder horns
