Contemporary Replica Item: Only One Available. Here is a very nice recent production octagonal barreled "Kentucky" style rifle, which more correctly is known as a Pennsylvania Rifle. Recently interest in the style has undergone quite a resurgence, and rather than risk damage to a valuable antique, many companies and artisans have started producing the style again. This example may possibly have been made from a kit of some sorts, but was definitely expertly assembled from high quality components.

The heavy octagonal barrel is 48" long and the rifle measures 63 1/2" in overall length. The gun has a lovely figured wood full stock, very common on Pennsylvania rifles. It is mostly brass mounted, with some nickel ornamentation on the right side of the stock, around a rectangular patch box. Interestingly, there is also a patch box on the left side of the stock as well, right on top of the cheek piece.

The barrel is fitted with standard fixed sights, and the lock is a nice replica "trade" flintlock, very common for the period. It is fully functional, and looks to be very well made.
