Description
This is a Parris Manufacturing style non-firing toy rifle, identified by the prominent sticker as a “1776 Freedom Rifle.” It is modeled after an 18th or 19th-century muzzleloading long gun, likely a Kentucky or Colonial musket pattern. The construction utilizes a rough-cut wooden stock and forend, secured to a metal tube barrel by crude metal bands. The lock plate assembly, hammer, trigger, and trigger guard are made of dark, cast metal, designed for simulated action only. The sticker on the buttstock reads: “1776 Freedom Rifle T.M. Made & Printed in USA Savannah, Tenn. 38372.” This item is a novelty replica and is not classified as a functional firearm.
