Wow! That coaching rifle is cool. But the price of approx $7300 US is uncool except for a rabid collector. Now the eagle powder horn really catches my eye. Thats practical artwork for sure. Thanks for showing!

I've never seen a coach gun like that. I imagine they came up with all sorts of ways to lighten them.

Here's a weird flintlock that I've always like;

The oldest folding stock that I can find anyways.
