does any-one have more info on this gun?:confused:
black powder most probably [bore? use?]
is this an old 'fowl' gun they used to mount on a small canoe in the old days?:wow:

Probably a 2 GA size (diameter of a half pound lead ball if memory serves me correctly). Punt guns ( a punt being a small boat:-) were used to hunt waterfowl commercially a century ago. That is today's lesson. It must be beer 30 somewhere in the world now!

I have not posted any items for sale on this forum and will not every put anything for sale. My account was hacked and I've worked with the admin to get things shut down.

Hello,
I might be able to help you out depending on how many you need. I could probably spare 50-75 .285g A-Frames. They are factory pulls that look like new. Let me know if you are still looking,
Thanks,
Gary
