Tim,
Not sure of your time frame but you might start out looking for:
Firearms from Europe by David Noe, Larry W. Yantz and James B. Wisker
British Military Longarms 1715-1865 by D. W. Bailey
British Military Firearms 1650-1850 by Howard L. Blackmore
The British Soldier's Firearm From Smoothbore to Small Bore 1850-1864 by Dr. C.H. Roads
British Military Flintlock Rifles 1740-1840 by DeWitt Bailey, Ph.D.
Some of these are out of print and will be quite pricey if you can find them. Good Luck
Barry
Wow....Thank you, that was quick!
I ordered the following.....
British Military Longarms 1715-1865 by D. W. Bailey
British Military Firearms 1650-1850 by Howard L. Blackmore
It wasn't too bad $67 shipped. I think this will give me a start. Again....many thanks!
