- American Percussion Fowler with Research
American Percussion Fowler with Research Documents .85 cal. smoothbore 46" round barrel.?British?proofs at breech?and? Virginia marked on top of the barrel and dated "1750."? The barrel has both rear and front sights; possibly applied when the piece was transformed into a fowling piece. The proof marks at the breech are a crown over crossed scepters over GR; also a crown over a P and another with a crown over a V (these are both within separate oval cartouches); between these markings appear the letters FG (Farmer and Galton Birmingham arms makers 1746-1774). In general the markings may be an early form of the King's proof marks or a very early form of private Tower of London proofs. Lot comes with research paperwork.This is a very early British first model Brown Bess used by a Virginia Militia unit then the parts were reused. Restocking attributed to Andrew Kopp (1782-1875) in York County Pennsylvania. Joe Kindig has Kopp listed as an apprentice to George Eister. Lockplate (Ca 1808) marked W. Ketland & Co. and engraved.? Stock of curly maple with raised C-scroll carving in high relief on the left side of the stock behind the cheek piece.? Raised carving behind the barrel tang. Nice molding running parallel with the ramrod channel. Carving around the lock mortise and on the opposite side.? Brass buttplate without patchbox brass sideplate and brass ferules. This gun was manufactured ca 1812.On November 6 1750 the Virginia Council ordered 500 stands of muskets from England for the colony "...that the Receiver General send for from England five hundred muskets (to be marked with Virginia 1750) bayonets and cartouche boxes of the best sort thirty barrels of cannon powder and ten single F two tons of musket ball ten thousand flints." (Executive Journals of Council of Colonial Virginia Vol. 5 p.344). These muskets would have been received in Williamsburg and in different periods some may have been placed in both the Governor's Palace and the Powder Magazine. Later some undoubtedly could have seen service on the frontier. This specimen from an old collection ca 1970s from Martinsburg West Virginia is believed to be the only surviving barrel from the original order of 500 muskets. As the piece evolved subsequent owners thought enough of its history not to remove the important barrel markings. Some supporting documentation accompanies this piece. Condition: Barrel and lock have a dark brown untouched patina.? Brass and stock are untouched with dark patina.?One small piece of wood missing on the left side of the tang.? Rifle is in the black and untouched in outstanding condition.? This rifle?exhibits how?guns and parts were reused beginning with the French and Indian War through the Revolutionary War War of 1812 and into the Civil War.
