J. Harder, # 285   Lock Haven, PA 1838-1860
A very nice ½ stock percussion rifle built in Lock Haven by the J. Harder Co. The rifle has a 32” 50 cal. barrel that was recently re-cut by bobby Hoyt from 45 cal. to 50 cal. This rifle is very accurate and certainly safe to shoot. It has a back action lock and double set triggers. The nice Walnut stock is decorated with a typical Harder deer inlay. A beautiful piece of central PA history.
