Early Trade Rifle
Indian Trade rifle produced 1830-40 for The Office of Indian Trade through The Bureau Of Indian Affairs. This English pattern, backaction percussion smoothbore with German silver Crown bust at wrist with oil finished one piece walnut stock and brass fittings is one of the later patterns and are far less commonly encountered as most ended up being replaced with captured military small arms of the period. This example remains in as discovered condition and is extremely pleasing to the eye.
