Arms, Armor & Militaria

Very Good. Smooth bores moderately oxidized with some rust. Metal cleaned to bright in a European fashion, removing some of the engraving on the cocks and leaving some light scuff marks on the barrels. Some lightly scattered pitting is present on the metal, particularly one of the cocks. Markings mostly clear and legible. Mechanically functional actions. Wood with some scattered bumps, dings and mars. Case of poor quality and poorly adapted for this purpose with substantial damage to the lid. Accessories in about fair condition.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
