Guess the Gun - blackpowder edition!

[Claven2]

The rules are you must get one right before you can post a photo, put the Enfield away until you get one right. I didn't make the rules.

It's not an Enfield

A great game here, I'm no expert, so will watch with great interest

 

[HUNTERROD]

guess the gun

farthest one down, would that not be a marlin model 1894???

 

[griaguns]

I think it is a Whitney.Graham

 

[Road King]

Here's another one to guess...

How about a Potsdam.

 

[ONTARIOGUNS]

Marlin 30-30?

 

[wr.sainsbury]

guess that mess

from the angle on the nipple bolster i'd say remington zouave but that is a birmingham stamp if i'm not mistaken.???

 

[Claven2]

Not a potsdam nor a zouave. As for a hint, it IS military (sort of) and apart from modern times had never set foot in North America

Ths copper washer under the nipple might be of help as this was common practise only a couple armies that I know of...

Oh, allright... one more set of hints. The barrel is NOT rifled and it was "born" in London.

 

[Musketfire]

East india co musket......kinda like a 3rd pattern bess but percussion.

By the look of the conversion she was made as a percussion arm and never a flintlock.

 

[Claven2]

Close enough - It's an EIC Pattern F converted from an EIC Pattern E musket, made in London in the 1850's in .75 cal smoothbore.

Not a terribly common gun in Canada

Here's the lock:
