I am interested in a Brown Bess rifle, dated 1862, with the Tower Of London badge stamped on it. The stock is cracked at the handle, and it is in very bad condition, but I like it. It is of percussion type, and it is shorter than the replicas that one finds on the Internet. Could anyone please give me an indication of the type of offer I should make, i.e. less than R1000, more than R1000 etc. Your help is much appreciated.

Without seeing the piece, would be impossible for us to say. Is it a genuine BB ? or a trade gun assembled from BB parts ? Clear and detailed phots would help !
