Pedersoli Indian Trade Musket

Classic European styling is reflected in this type rifle which was bought by large trading companies such as Hudson’s Bay, Northwest Company and American Fur Company for trade in America with the Indians and fur trappers in the late 17 and early 1800s. The shortened design made it easy to carry on foot or on horseback. This is a fullstock 51 3/16” length. Barrel is 20 gauge, blued 36 ¼”, Octagon breech to round w/wedding band transition. Front sight is a brass blade. Features a casehardened lock, single trigger, large triggerguard bow, and a brass serpent sideplate. Made by Pedersoli/Italy.  Item # GN00282
