This stock second has chipping from the cutter near the breech end of the barrel on the side panel side. The ragged area is approximately 3" long. This will leave a visible gap, but wood could be spliced in to cover this area. This early Lancaster County style stock honors Jacob Dickert, a master gunsmith who arrived in America about 1750. After becoming a citizen, he produced rifles for the Continental Army. He was an artist, producing raised carved flint longrifles with daisy patchboxes for his many customers.
