This is a typical mid 18th century trade gun with a more slender wrist and serpent sideplate. The stock profile was taken from the Bumford trade gun but the butt was widened slightly to fit the typical Type G buttplate. All of the brass parts were patterned after ones dug up here in Virginia.

Only available with a plain maple stock. These look great painted in blue or red.

There are some finished examples on the Trade Gun page.

The locks are R .E. Davis Early English style with cast-in engraving and the barrels are by Rice.

Available in 20, or 24 gauge smoothbore. Barrel lengths up to 47". (Call or email me if you want a barrel shorter than 47".)

Breech plug is installed.
