      <description><![CDATA[Nord is correct. I have two listings for the name BAYARD. one is  just BAYARD (without or with a knight) and the other BAYARD ARMS CO. Both are Belgian made and by the same maker but with two names. The first name is Henri Pieper(1877 to 1898) and the other is Anciens Establissments Pieper (1894 to 1907). A word of caution. This gun being Belgian was made for the ammunition in use at the time which was black powder, not any type of smokeless powder and will have damascus barrels. Don't attempt to shoot it!]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[The patina of age cannot be re-created. The illusion of age can.

Believe it or not black shoe polish will often do a fair job. Carbon black, oil (wax), stain, etc.

Wear is something you need to consider also.

My feeling is that a fifty year old restoration would best be left as is. The work was done, the old stock is lost forever, and there's no good reason to pretend the piece is anything other than what it is.]]></description>

Tried and true methods to create instant antiques.

After that, you must acknowledge that it has been artifically antiqued somewhere on the arm, say a dated note under the butplate.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[The original gunstock was pretty weathered, it had a splinter and a small crack, but look pretty good for having weather extreme climate changes and the bushes of the NWT.  
I made a mistake by having the gunstock replaced and I am living today regretting that I had it replaced with new stock.  This was in 1970.
I would like to give it that weathered look and possibly create that splinter and crack in the stock.  Basically make it look as much as possible as it would have had I not replaced the Woodstock.
Any information or persons to contact would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Bill Curtis is right on all counts.  Here is my response to the same item on Gun Broker: 
You have a rather rare gun. Few people have ever seen a percussion lock with the works on the outside. It is constructed with the same methodology that a generation before would have been a 'miquelet' flint lock. Yours could date from the early perc period around 1825 up to late 1800s. It appears to be a fine gun that has fallen on hard times from use and neglect. &quot;Rare&quot; in the case of this kind of gun doesn't mean valuable. Supply-wise it is scarce but little demand in the US.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Thanks, Mr, Curtis. I had never seen an external hammer spring lock with that hammer style nor that upside down &quot;T&quot; piece. Struck me as more like earlier locks with dog latches. The bbl, with the percussion mounting area forged in place seemed as if it could have been modified from a type of powder bowl from an inovative design. 

The proofs / marks are difficult to see. I have a early post Civil War firearms reference book that includes a number of proofs and other marks of &quot;all nations&quot; including the &quot;modern&quot; marks. It was , the book, recovered from the local dump's paper salvage area. 

interesting stuff shows up there....I even found a 3&quot; mid eastern bronze sand cast antiuqity, a part of a device the rest of which is lost to time.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Unfortunately these marks are rather far gone to obtain any firm idea.  The rectangular stamp normally carries the name or an abbreviation of the name in three lines.  For example – that of Diego Esquibel reads  DIES / QUI / BEL.  The other mark is possibly the maker’s private mark.  Only a small proportion of Spanish makers’ marks have been recorded so unknown marks are not unusual.  I cannot find any mark even resembling this second mark, so, I am afraid that this is as far as I can go.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[When you take a used bourbon barrel and set it in the sun, some of that soaked in whiskey will &quot;sweat out&quot; and it is indeed fine stuff.  Kentucky has an &quot;Anti-Sweating Law&quot; which forbids doing this - I suppose in general, collecting this whiskey is considered maunfacturing alcohol without paying the Revenue Department their tax, also known as Moonshining.

      <description><![CDATA[You are wrong about the dog lock. The lock is a new production from the period when the Miquelet flints were either being converted to percussion or, in this case, made new as percussion.  The oldest part is the barrel which is probably late 18th century miquelet flint.  When I see details of the stamps I will have a better idea but by no means all the makers' marks are recorded.  These barrels were popular with English customers who bought them from Spain and had them locked and stocked in the English manner.  I had one once with a barrel by Fernando Olave put into a fine London fowling piece by Bond of Cornhill.   All the 'best' makers were happy to provide this service as the Spanish barrels were made with the finest iron.  Spanish and Swedish iron ores were reckoned the best available.  Swedish iron was used for horseshoe nails which were used in huge quantities. The used nails were carefully saved and provided the source for the quality iron described as 'Stubs Twist' used in best barrels.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Yes, Clyde, the Earth is currently locked in a cycle of glaciers for 100,000+- years followed by 10-20,000 years of interglacial warmpth. Been going on for over 3,000,000 years. We're due for a switch , as we've been interglacial for about 14,000 years, in 2 to 6,000 years. I've been considering using that Swiss supercollider to create a hole in time and going forward and see when it switches. Maybe not.

Anyway, we'll likely never know if this weather is the climate switch or not. I strongle suspect it is part of the el-Nino el-Nina weather cycle. 

As for hand made sour mash whiskey, have you checked the prices lately! The NYS Tax man has screwed us royally with &quot;sin taxes&quot;! 

And Jack stright from the aging bbl is.....great but VERY dangerous!

Years ago we bought a tractor trailor load of uncut bbls that were not useable for whiskey. There was still about a half pint of the raw stuff still in each bbl when they got here. .....Don't know what the Proof was, but it was a whole heck of a lot higher than the bottled stuff.]]></description>

Thank you. I couldn't view the proofs well enough to judge. I was (and am) unfamiliar with the lock, but the stock certainly has more northern overtones.

      <description><![CDATA[This gun is Spanish with a lock from the 1830-50 period and probably mounted with an older barrel.  The lock is of the style of Pedro Aguirre of Eibar. It may be possible to identify the barrel maker if really CLEAR photos of the poincons (stamps) on top of the breech can be seen.  The stock and trigger guard are a little puzzling as they do not conform to the traditional Spanish styles although the side-plate does.  There is an element of the Belgian style about the stock but, given the date, it is entirely possible that more northern influences were expressing themselves as this is from the last years of the traditional Spanish guns.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[No, Joel, both are pure civilian arms and 22LR from the get-go. One a W.W. Greener take-down the other a Francotte AM full-stock sold in Great Britain by Parker long ago.

I will be getting (somewhat unxpectedly) a converted Cadet here in Texas lateer this week (Friday afternoon). Conversion is to 218 Mashburn Bee, using a take-off barrel from a Winchester 75. And just beautiful stock. It is here in Texas, in fact near here and the woner and I have made arrangements to meet sort of half-way and do the sale face-to-face.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Water table is the inside bottom of the receiever (or frame as some call it), visible when you open the gun. Better to take the barrel off the frame, though this requires removal of the fore-end which it appears you may not know how to do. 

Barrel flats are the flat areas below the barrel are hidden by the frame when the gun is closed up.

Proof marks on most shotguns are on the bottoms of the barrels near the breech end, and the barrels usually have to be taken off to see them.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Yes sorry I was in a rush last night when I posted. I will include pictures tonight but yes it does have glass beads for eyes, side by side hammers and it does have carvings on the fore end as well. I will check later for the marking on the barrel flats and water table but you must first instruct me to where those are located. Haven't had much experience in the break barrel shotgun department haha. 

Thanks,
Clark]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I hope neither of them are Cadets Clyde. Thad Scott was forced by an officious Customs official to put the huge shipment of miniature Martinis he got from Australia in a bonded warehouse because some of them were Cadets and Thad had to prove each one was not a military rifle.]]></description>
