Mid 18th Century Rifle

This is my recent interpretation of a European trained gunsmith (possibly Bavarian) working in colonial America, in the years leading up to the F&I war.  I attempted to look at rococo from a baroque point of view assuming an experienced gunsmith was trying his hand at carving in the newer fashion yet still retaining the roots of his training.  This I think blended old parts with new art and  some charismatic flair thrown in creates a rifle with a interesting yet a business like personality in the game taking 58 cal.
