GR79-0323-4627, American Made Double Barrel Percussion Sporting Rifle with medallion on the side of the stock, M. SLATER, MAKER, NY. The top of the barrel shows WELLES & HALE, MILWAUKEE, WIS. Over under barrels with double hammers, one for each barrel. 25 in barrels with wooden ramrod on the side of the barrel. The elevator of the rear sighting and the uppertang is missing the tang sight. The upper barrel is smooth bore and measures .57 or about .20 gauge.The rifled bore gauges measures .41. The shotgun bore is bright with some dust. The rifled bore is bright, shiny and crisply rifled. Fine condition bore. Both hammers are functional. Mostly dark patina on the whole gun with a large parth of heavy surface residue on the side side of the barrel. The brown on the barrel looks like the original brown finish. John Welles was building guns with Hale in Milwaukee from 1858-1870. I think the M Slater on the medallion was probably a dealer in New York in the 1860s. I did not find an M Slater in the “American Gunsmiths” book by Frank M Sellers. That being said, I think it is a Milwaukee gun but probably sold in New York. Either way, it is a Yankie gun. Very good overall. An American made combination barrel gun an uncommon gun.
