British flintlock blunderbuss marked by maker W & S Rooke, late 1700s. 5 lb 7 oz, 29" long. Interesting piece with less than half its length accounted for by its brass barrel, showing maker's London address and eight-point star on top (proofmarks to side) and "Long Live King George" around the flaring muzzle, 1-1/4" bore, lightly engraved walnut stock and brass trigger-guard, tight and functional lock with maker's name on side, wooden ramrod (possible period replacement) intact but missing brass tip. With photo-certificate.
Estimate: $2500 - 3750
