Part Number: AAQ-263
This used Pennsylvania longrifle is stocked in curly maple and trimmed in highly polished nickel silver furniture. The curly maple stock has been stained to a deep red to contrast with the bright furniture. The straight octagon barrel and Robbins percussion lock are finished to a dark brown. This unsigned rifle was likely assembled in the late 1970's to early 1980's based on the parts.

Then .45 caliber barrel is 13/16" straight octagon with an overall length of 36". The bore is rifled with eight lands and grooves with a slow twist for a patched round ball. The style of rifling would indicated that this barrel was manufactured by Green Mountain Barrel Company, but it is unmarked on the exterior. The barrel is fitted with a full buckhorn rear sight dovetailed 10-1/2" ahead of the breech. Shooters with "older" eyes or corrective lenses will often find this extra distance from the breech easier to use. A brass blade front sight is dovetailed behind the muzzle.
