    WTS - Making room in the gun cabinet

    Mama says, you can have that new Sharps, but you have to make room for it in the gun cabinet, so ...

    WTS - Zouave, Hawes Firearms Company, no S/N, Japanese proof markings on barrel, bluing 95%, stock clean (only a few dings), good first shooter, $300 OBO.

    WTS - 2-band Enfield musketoon, no manufacturer listed, S/N 46xxx, possible Italian proof markings, bluing 100%, barrel bands case-hardened (!), stock clean (only a few dings), leather and lead snap-cap nipple protector with chain, $250 OBO.
    UPDATE: offer pending.

    Post here, or email (in my profile), or see me at the Veterans (ask for Al Corson at the Laurel Brigade), guns located here in the vast wastelands of Northern Virginia.

    Regards to all,

    Is the Enfield a Musketoon or a 2 bander? Basically, how long is the barrel? I think the 'Toon is 24". If it's a 24" barreled Musketoon, I'll take it.

    Corrections and additions

    Fellow Front-Stuffers
    Please accept my apologies for an ommission: the little 2-bander is a carbine, and at present it has no front sight. In my zeal to correct the horrible factory front sight, I ground it completely off with my trusty Dremel tool. I have not replaced it yet, and am reluctant to do so. My skill level at silver soldering is at the "kinda' sucky" level, and the muzzles of the last two Enfields (both Parker-Hales) I modified now have boogered bluing. The $250 price is "as-is".

    Regards to all y'all,
