Product Description

Antique I. SMITH TORONTO Half-Stock .46 Cal. Percussion American LONG RIFLE

Canadian Made HUNTING/HOMESTEAD Long Rifle

Here we present an antique I. Smith Marked Half Stock Percussion Long Rifle, made circa the mid-19^th Century in Toronto, Canada. Its octagonal barrel is in .46 caliber, large enough to take medium to large sized game or to defend the homestead against unwanted aggression. Rifle manufacture in the mid-to-late 19^th Century was rapidly changing over from thousands of craftsmen all over the United States, Canada, and on the Frontier making and selling their wares, to the large factories with standardized assembly lines and modern manufacturing techniques.

The overall condition is good. The action is strong. The bore is dim and somewhat pitted with strong rifling visible. The stock is solid overall. There is a repair at the heel. A small ornament is present on one side but absent on the other side. The rear sight has been replaced. A great rifle and very rare to find one from Toronto!

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.

Barrel is 37-1/2 inches.

Caliber: .46 Percussion
