PRICE REDUCED Signed "H Deringer, Philada" Henry Deringer, Philadelphia, PA ca 1810

Here is a Deringer trade rifle in near perfect condition with an unaltered flintlock stamped H Deringer. The 42.5 Inch barrel is about .62 cal with a round muzzle and an "M" stamped at the breech. Henry Sr and his son Henry Jr moved from Richmond, VA to Philadelphia in 1806 and established themselves in the trade making some Kentucky style rifles and militia contract rifles for the Indian trade. A "12" is stamped on the side plate. This example is in original condition with old surfaces and no damage.

Generally trade rifles of this period are heavily used and altered. This rifle is remarkable and would be a great addition to any early rifle collection.

SOLD SOLD Unsigned, Jacob Hoak restock, Lancaster, PA ca 1840

Possibly restocked as an Indian trade rifle this example had been a rather nice rifle by Jacob Hoak from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. All the mounts are of Hoak's style. It is stocked in walnut which was the wood Jacob used on other rifles. The architecture is similar to other Hoak rifles however, since Hoak died in 1831 it is not likely he made the rifle. The lock is maked Tyron giving rise to the idea it may have been restocked for the Indian trade. The 45 inch barrel is about .65 cal.

This is an interesting rifle in very good condition with a beautifully engraved patchbox and a long graceful look.

SOLD 10/26
