  • Stockton Rifle

    A fellow reenactor sent me this article. Does anyone know anything about such a gun? Thanks for your time. Jason

        Jason,
        I do not know what your questions on this might be, but Ken Baumann still lives in Milan, MI, still has the piece, and you could call him directly to ask the man who owns one.

          We were thinking of having one made for our reenacting group. We have wanted to add a gun to our cavalry regiment and thought this would be one that isn't already in our state organization. If he would be interested in sending me pictures PM me and I'll get you my email. I will also get the guy that is building it to get me a list of questions so we can have one made. Thanks for getting back to me.

            What are thinking of spending on this venture? You better have deep pockets.

                I better watch were I go from here as it will not be done in a authentic manner. Our saftey regs in our state organization don't allow for cast barrels they have to be milled. So with that I will say thanks and let this thread be closed.
