This buttplate exactly replicates the style used on the French "fusil fin" trade guns that were widely traded in the 1730-1760 era throughout America. These beautiful weapons can be seen in T.M. Hamilton's Colonial Frontier Guns. Many "fusil fin" trade guns were restocked into American fowlers, particularly in New England. Copied from an original fusil fin in a private collection. The decorative engraving common to these guns is cast in.

Available in wax cast brass and steel.
