29. PERCUSSION BUFFALO RIFLE. L. 32" Some illegible lettering on barrel, which is octagon and extremely heavy. Ramrod under barrel. Stock extends only to breech and is inlaid with German silver. Extremely rare. This type was used on the western plains, 1840-'55. 30. U. S. FLINTLOCK MUSKET. L. 58" Model of 1798. Cheek-piece hollowed into stock. Complete with flint and ramrod and in fine shooting condition. Mark, "J. Henry, Phila." 31. FLINTLOCK KENTUCKY RIFLE. L. 56-1/2" Curley maple stock. Brass mounts, including long patch-box. Original striped ramrod, which has been re-tipped with an exploded pistol cartridge. This gun has been restored, though so skillfully as to pass for original condition. Fine shooting order. Mark on lockplate, "Tryon, Philada." 32. U. S. 1822 MODEL ARMY MUSKET. L. 57-1/4" Altered to percussion, apparently by civilian gunsmith. Good condition. 33. DOUBLE PERCUSSION SHOTGUN. L. 46-1/2" About 12-bore. Back action locks. No marks. Has been abused. 34. DOUBLE PERCUSSION SHOTGUN. L. 46" Stock cracked and both locks and one nipple gone. 35. PERCUSSION KENTUCKY RIFLE. L. 55" Inoperative and both sights gone, otherwise good. No marks. 36. "MULE-EAR" DOUBLE SHOTGUN. L. 49" Superposed barrels. Side action lock. Two ramrods, both original. Working order. 12-bore. Very rare. No marks. 37. OVER-AND-UNDER RIFLE. L. 50-1/2" One lock, barrels revolving by hand. Mark on lock, "Jos. Golgher, Phila." On plate opposite lock, "I. L. Beck." This rifle was once the property of Imanuel Beck, a noted Sugar Valley hunter, and has probably killed much big game. A rare and historic piece, in the best of condition. (These double rifles with revolving barrels are much rarer than the rigid type.) This gun was not made by Golcher, as he made and furnished to other makers more locks than he made rifles. It was his custom to stamp his name on the barrels of his own guns. 38. WINCHESTER REPEATING RIFLE. 30-in. Barrel. Model of 1873. .38-40 Cal. Good order. 39. U. S. ARMY MUSKET. L. 55" 1808 Model. This specimen has been fitted with a Civil War type rear sight, evidently having been issued in 1862, when arms were scarce. Initials "L. H." cut in stock, while brass plate is marked "J. E. S." Sling-strap not original and jaw-screw is obviously home-made, with square head. Several inches have been cut off of barrel. This gun is not reliable as a source of data on U. S. military arms. A curious mountaineer gun, in fine order. 40. "ZULU" SHOTGUN. L. 50-1/2" Made from old French army rifle. These guns were sold in great quantities to the poorer farmers in Pennsylvania. In the stock is a small piece of wood which was blessed by the French priests and placed in the stock at the arsenal. It was supposed to insure accuracy. A curious outcropping of medieval superstition in modern times. 41. CIVIL WAR AUSTRIAN PURCHASE CARBINE. L. 30-1/2"
