Percussion swivel gun

[grmschlr]

Greetings - I came across this amazing percussion rifle that I can not find anything in books or online.

It is stamped with F. BEERSTECHER, LEWISBERG, PA. (1856-1868)

40+ caliber percussion muzzle loader with rifled swivel barrels. It has a simple cap box in the stock and one slightly warped ram rod.

G to VG

Anything is useful.

Thank you

Photo's would be great, I'm not sure what gun you are talking about (I'm probably the only one).

swivel breech guns are not something i know alot about . but i would bet that if you posted your question over on the American long rifle forum , more then a few folks there could probably give you information down to chapter and verse

I checked my Shumway set of books and didn't see anything.
