Good condition original antique Napoleonic Wars era Russian Model 1808 flintlock musket in .70 caliber. Lock has Tula Arsenal markings and dated 1815. Metal has plum brown patina. Brass bands, triggerguard, and sideplate have attractive patina. Mechanically needs work as the cock only holds at half cock. 41” barrel has a dark pitted smooth bore. Stock has old revarnished finish and shows some wear and handling marks. Right side of stock has a crack in front of the rear band. Left side of stock has a crack in front of the sideplate. Buttplate is missing. Complete with correct original ramrod. A very rare Napoleonic era Russian musket that will make a fine advanced addition to a collection.
