Description
Rifle with percussion lock marked Leman, Lancaster, Pa., brass mounted with an attractive design engraved on the patch box, brass inlays, octagonal barrel marked H. Leman, Lancaster, Pa. Most Leman rifles with a half stock have round patch boxes and it is possible that this one was changed from a full stock to a half stock, however there is no evidence that a change was made in this gun.
