Black powder percussion cap shotgun. Probably made in England between late 1830's thru 1850's, just a guess though. It being in Kansas is very fitting. That gun is great piece of American History and probably someone of means owned that gun since it appears to have decent wood in the stock from what I could see in photos.
Some say Winchester won the West, but that was after Civil War West. Some say Sam Colt won the west with invention of percussion cap and ball revolver which was almost specifically designed to put settlers on equal footing with the Commanche. All that is debatable but I think settlers armed with shotguns to put meat on the table and guard the front door had more to do with winning the West. |
