A French officer flintlock musket ?
12 Attachment(s)
This riffle has a caliber about 16 mm. Overall 142 cm and barrel 102 cm.
I believe it could be before the French’s revolution. The marks on the trigger guard and stock seems to be the same. Any comment on it would be welcome. Best Cerjak |

Hello, Cerjak
In the book of Marcel Baldet "Les Armes a Feu", there is an array with several rifles (musquet) listed officially as a light gun (/ officiers) and cadets-gentilshommes. Among them, there are several similarities. It is all that I can decire from Argentina Affectionately. Fernando K |
Bonjour Jean-Luc,
Looks like the great majority of French muskets had a 17 mm caliber. Do you know this site ? . http://www.academie-des-armes-anciennes.com/amff.html |

Yes I Know this well documented site but infortunatly this site focuses on service weapons but muskets for officer were made on demand and it seems That there is a wide range of models often ligher than infantry musket . I have never found exactly the same. Best Jean -Luc |
