The rifle has characteristics from three original TN rifles incorporated. The stock profile, side plate, and triggerguard finals are from a William Douglas, the rear sight is from a Joel Atkinson, and the patch box, nose cap, and triggerguard grip rail are from a Abraham Grimsley rifle.

Roger, that is a great old timey rifle. I really admire the way that whole thing came together.
ReplyDeleteSpectacular rifle, Mr Sells. Every part of it is beautiful and the overall lines are moving enough to make me feel sad to be a Yankee. I'd love to own a gun like this.
