<p>[QUOTE="BobtheGrizz, post: 9877399, member: 88104"]Ya know, opinion is just that…opinion. It probably isn’t the most exquisite thing you’ve ever seen…but to label it junk. I understand it has its flaws, and honestly most immaculate pieces do. Not offended in the least. It was my mom’s she passed on, and she loved it when it was hers. Hopefully, I can find out a bit more about it. Who knows, it could have been an earlier much earlier piece made by a well known maker. It coulda been a kid entering the hobby. It could be an imported piece? It remains a mystery. </p><p>A buddy of mine, a skilled flintlock maker of his time, once told me his earlier rifles were never marked…but he could identify them by his mistakes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
