Fine condition alteration of a Daniel Nippes, Mill Creek, Pennsylvania 1840 contract musket. Drum alteration with a finely manufactured hammer distinctly different from others I have seen. The metal parts are fine and a nice brownish patina. The lock is crisp and operates properly. The markings on the lock and barrel are nicely stamped and are sharp and clear. The wood is nice with 2 faintly visible inspector's cartouches and with the usual nicks and dings associated with use and storage.
