This is an early example of the popular swivel breech rifle made by Leonard Day. It is serial number 70 and was made back in the 60’s. It is a flintlock rifle and the nicely browned lock is marked “L. Day” and stamped with the serial number. The gun features browned octagonal barrels which are 32” in length, .45 caliber and also marked with the serial number. Barrels have German silver blade front sights and open style rear sights. The full stock is curly maple and is medium to dark brown in color with some figure visible. The right side of the stock is channeled for the ramrod and has brass ramrod thimbles with the rear thimble being engraved. Buttstock features a nicely engraved brass horse head patch box, a brass buttplate and toeplate. The left side of the buttstock features a raised check piece with a German silver star inlay and some relief carving is present. The overall length of the rifle is 49 inches and the weight is 10 pounds. The rifle is in used but very good condition, especially for its age.
