A very attractive American Rev. War musket. It's made up of mostly British 2nd model Brown Bess parts including the Tower Lock. The 42 1/4" barrel is .75 cal. and has had a rear sight filed into it's tang which is  typical of American used longarms. The stock is made from North American Yellow Birch. The musket appears to be original Flint but couldn't remove the lock as the front screw is frozen. The ramrod is also tight and requires a little strength to remove but does come out and appears to be original to the musket. The locks action works well on both half and full cock. The wrist escutcheon is engraved LI over N.28 . Possibly a Long Island , N. Y Militia unit.   Overall the musket exhibits a wonderful patina.
