Here it is Michael. The gun has been sanded and buffed which removed quit a bit of the stamping and is why you can’t see the barrel address. It does not pay to spend any money on the musket.

I certainly agree with Bob.  I think there are plenty of guys who would happily buy this piece as a shooter.
