era and early into the percussion era.\u00a0\u00a0 I have a real affinity for Western Pa. guns and built this gun for one of my grandsons.\u00a0\u00a0 This rifle was built with a 44\u201d B weight barrel and a Davis Ketland lock, as well as Davis # 4 double set triggers.\u00a0 Rifles of this type are great handling guns that are a joy to carry afield.\u00a0 If you are interested in a similar rifle, please contact me, and we can discuss a similar build.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\"
