Here is a unique opportunity to acquire one of our rifles without the long wait time. This Lehigh County style rifle was built by Shane and incorporates a unique blending of styles and features. It was stocked from a nice piece of figured Cherry and stained with a traditional aqua fortis stain, providing a soft, warm look against the aged iron, polished brass mounts and silver inlays. For the bones of the build it features a 38″ Colerain C weight barrel in .54 caliber with Gain Twist rifling, a Large Siler flintlock and a Davis single trigger, which together have all been tuned for a fast and reliable ignition. With that combo, this rifle balances exceptionally well weighing in at only 7 lbs. 2 oz. and measuring in at at 54″ in overall length.
Bold file work on the brasses, hand engraved silver inlays, and a unique sliding wood patchbox are some of the unique features that this piece offers, as well as hand filed 16 sided faceted ram rod pipes and a hand coned muzzle. This rifle was finished as a “new” rifle, void of any aggressive faux aging, and shows only a hint of oxidation on the brasses to match up to our signature black oxide finish on the iron parts. Providing a soft, worn in luster on an otherwise new rifle.
If you have an interest in acquiring this piece, please feel free to reach out and discuss the project via phone or email.
