CONTEMPORARY REPLICA 2ND MODEL BROWN BESS MUSKET
|
|
|
Description :
|
This is a contemporary replica of the British 2nd Model Brown Bess Musket. It may be an upgraded Pedersoli gun, as the lock is the Pedersoli 1762 Grice lock. The barrel and lock have been browned and the Italian markings removed. Proof marks and a serial number remain on the barrel. The stock has been stained darker and given an oil finish. The finished musket has a very pleasing appearance, used but well cared for. It is in very fine condition. It retains about 95% of its applied brown finish. The brass furniture has a good dark bronze patina. The lock works perfectly throwing a good shower of sparks. The bore is very fine. It is smooth and shiny. There is a little bit of streaking about half way down that looks like some powder residue, but may be very light surface rust. I can't tell for sure. The stock is very fine with a rich dark color. There are two tiny scuff marks on the right side of the butt. This is a good looking Bess that will serve a reenactor well. Stock no. 22098
