Description

Made by Sharpe and Keene circa early 1800's - with London proof mark on its 35" original barrel. This is a genuine "sleeper" and has, apart from a wipe down not been touched in many years.

The bore is a tight 12 bore.

Screw heads undamaged, horn fore end, home made silver (?) escutcheons where the barrel keeper sits. Silver (uncleaned and unsigned) disc behind the barrel lug.

Brass trigger guard with original grime. Brass butt plate (again uncleaned)

Very good checkering

The comb has light damage (please see photos)

Ramrod still has its spiral screw but the tip is missing.

The build quality is very good and has an almost "military" feel.

Any questions please ask ---
