J. & D. Little Half stock muzzle loader

LITTLE, J. & D. — Bellefonte, Pa., mid-19th century. Gun and gun barrel makers. Made percussion rifle barrels for J. D. McKahan; McKahan & Noble, and others.

What a sweet rifle! This one is .38 caliber, sporting a 36" barrel that is a massive 1" across the flats! Curly maple stock, double set hair triggers. For an original untouched piece, this is just gorgeous! After a little cleaning with a bore brush and many patches, the bore is in good solid shape and shootable! I will be doing some work at getting the nipple out and installing a new one, Hopefully!
