WTS/WTT Custom built 50.cal. Underhammer Black Powder Rifle.
The barrel is a Green Mountain 7/8", 28.5" in length with a 1:70" twist for patched round ball that has been browned. The bore is in excellent shape. The wood was carved from a block of tight Curley Maple wood. The butt plate used on this rifle is from an old Ithaca Shotgun.
Total length of rifle is 45". Weights 6.1 lbs. LOP is 14.25"
The ramrod lug are polished brass and mounted directly to the barrel. The ramrod is also tiger stripped with a hidden ball puller.
The underhammer lock assemble is from Fire & Iron. The assemble has been highly polished and it looks like stainless steel. Fire & Iron in Florida make the best underhammer lock assemble, bar none.
The front and rear sights are fiber optic which can make the target for hunting or range shooting rewarding.
Price $700. If you have a Ruger Mark II or III, or any other Ruger pistol to trade I will consider seriously. No FFL is needed for Black Powder firearms.
The only reason I am selling this beauty is I have had shoulder surgery twice in the last year, and my shooting has me limited to sidearms and pistols. I cannot afford to undo (again) what the surgeon has done.
I cannot see this functional range and hunting rifle just being a wall hanger. This rifle has taken Elk and Deer in the past and she is a great shooter if you enjoy black powder shooting.
