(A) MASSIVE 3 BORE CLUB BUTT FLINTLOCK RIFLE. This gigantic gun is built with an approximately 3 bore (possibly 4 bore originally) rifled round barrel. Ivory blade front sight and quarter rib mounted notched rear. Flintlock with convex lock plate and cock. Double set triggers are set in an oversized engraved iron trigger guard. Hefty club butt stock with iron butt plate. Right side is carved "Colonel Carter". An iron rib is retained by a pair of line engraved thimbles and an iron mouth. CONDITION: Fair. Iron has a mottled brown gray patina. Stock has heavy handling marks and splits throughout and some added finish. Forend was cut behind the middle thimble, later reattached. Wrist also has a large repaired split. A period square headed iron carriage bolt with square nut runs crosswise through the stock from the left side of the tang to the right side just below the cock. A large section of wood is spliced in the the heel. Rifling is worn and shows abrasion throughout. Action requires some adjustment. A very interesting rifle, possibly a rampart gun or perhaps a seal/polar bear hunting rifle.Name Value Barrel Length 36 - 1/4" Caliber/Bore 3 Bore Rifled FFL Status Antique Manufacturer Continental Model Flintlock Rifle Serial Number NSN, Name, Value, Barrel Length, 36 - 1/4", Caliber/Bore, 3 Bore Rifled, FFL Status, Antique, Manufacturer, Continental, Model, Flintlock Rifle, Serial Number, NSN
