Please click the image for a larger version
Flintlock brass barreled blunderbuss marked "WHEELER" on lock. British proofed near barrel breech. 12" flared brass barrel about 1-3/16" in diameter at the muzzle, about 28" overall. Untouched patina overall with a sea service style triggerguard. Replacement wooden ramrod. Stock is fine and untouched, having a small crack by the buttplate, small crack by rear lock screw, and a small old chip on each side of the forearm by the locating pin, with a little knot missing above it on the right side. This is a very simple blunderbuss in unusually fine, untouched condition. Mechanically good, sold as a collector item only, not warranted safe to shoot.
