This full size plan drawing depicts a longrifle in the style of Isaac Haines, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, circa 1770.
The book
Artistic Ingredients of the Longrifle by Dr. George Shumway indicates the Isaac Haines may have been the most influential gun maker in Lancaster County.
Our replica, made by Joe Scorsone of Asheville, NC., is on display in our shop.
John Bivins made this Lancaster County style rifle famous, producing the 1776 commemorative rifles for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. We offer fully inlet Lancaster County style stocks for 38", 42", and 44" swamped barrels.
Our revised plan drawing includes the full size color photo, showing the rifle in detail. Line art and descriptive text reveal the hidden details and tips to the gun maker.
Our best plan drawing ever, our goal is to inspire you to create your own longrifle from our Isaac Haines - 1770 Lancaster longrifle kit!
