RAWBONE 10 ga. COACH GUN Open To Offers
Antique 10ga.Percussion Coach shotgun. Used in the Civil War with great effect by confederate cavalry. They were also use to guard gold bullion on stage coaches and trains in the mid-1860s and on into late 70s in the West until they were replaced by the cartridge shell versions. These were used by Wells Fargo, Adams and American Express companies as well as the railroads. The coach gun was carried right along with the Wells Fargo strong box.
Shotgun with 20 inch barrels (10ga.).
The ramrod looks to be period.. The solid stock is black walnut & the furniture polished. In its day it would look right in place on a frontier stagecoach or on board an early steam train express car.
For its age this gun is very well preserved and would provide a century of service yet. There are hallmarks indicating London View Marks.
Asking $650 plus shipping.
