Kentucky Percussion Rifle

The sweeping, graceful lines of this classic, historic rifle make the Kentucky Percussion Rifle one of the most recognizable arms in American history. Known as the Pennsylvania, Kentucky, or Stump rifle, this muzzleloader orginated about 1720. It was modified from the short German Jaeger hunting rifle into a longer, slimmer, lightweight gun that used a reduced powder charged and smaller caliber projectile. When the percussion lock was developed in the early part of the 19th Century, most of the Kentucky flint rifles were converted to this new system. Their popularity continued will into the cartridge era. This Kentucky Percussion Rifle has a highly polished one-piece walnut stock with an oil finish. It is furnished with a brass buttplate, trigger guard, large patchbox, side plate, thimbles and nosecap. The lock plate is case hardened. This model has a 35 inch octagonal blued barrel, brass blade front sight, and a steel open rear sight.
