Product Description
Antique LONG RIFLE Full Striped Maple Stock KENTUCKY PENNSYLVANIA .38 cal.
Kentucky Style HUNTING/HOMESTEAD Long Rifle!
Here we present an antique “L.G.” Signed Full Stock Long Rifle, made circa the mid-19th Century with a “JAS GOLCHER” Lock. Its octagonal barrel is in .38 caliber, large enough to take small to medium sized game or to defend the homestead against unwanted aggression. Rifle manufacture in the mid-to-late 19th Century was rapidly changing over from thousands of craftsmen all over the United States and on the Frontier making and selling their wares, to the large factories with standardized assembly lines and modern manufacturing techniques. Many makers’ names of the so-called Kentucky long rifles have been lost over time. This rifle is one such example.
The overall condition is good. The action does not function and is as you see it. Good bore for its age. The crack to the right of the barrel tang is stable. Markings are legible. What appears to be “LG” is marked atop the barrel.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 44-1/4 inches.
Caliber: .38 Percussion
