Flintlock musketoon of dragoon or cavalry style with sling swivel on long bar, attached ramrod, and lock marked “Porto 1802” with center of lock engraved with crown and initials (J.P.R.?) intertwined. Closely resembles British arms of Napoleonic era and we believe to be Portuguese. Measures 35” overall with a 20” barrel of .62 plus caliber smoothbore. The metal is good to very good with light minor aging and good markings. Correct flintlock parts. The stock is very good with light coating of clear varnish or shellac but no sanding. This must be a rare example as we have not viewed another in 50 years of selling antique arms. (Antique) Est.: $750-$1500
