Approximately .22 caliber, 19" barrel with 19 chambers. The round barrel has a brass bead sight at the muzzle and has a 1.5" diameter. The top flat of the breechblock is marked Henry Harrington Patent 1837 Southbridge Mass. The breechblock features a swinging loading gate, and has a lever on the side of the frame that locks it in place. The lock, hammer, frame and upper tang all feature scroll engravings. The walnut stock has a flat underbelly and an engraved flat profile buttplate that is silver plated over brass. Condition: The barrel has an even dark plum patina throughout, with some areas of spotting. The frame, hammer, upper tang, trigger guard and lock all have a dark plum patina. The breechblock has some areas of pitting, as well as a few dings to the edges on its underside, extending onto the frame. The frame also has some minor areas of pitting. The stock has some nicks and dings, as well as several age cracks on either side of the butt. Most of the silver plate is worn from the buttplate to show some brass underneath. The bores are all in good condition and could all use a cleaning. The mechanics are good.
