Flintlock lock with oxidised brass drum, marked in capital letters: Manufacture Royale de Charleville (the only manufacture to have produced the first model). Marked M under star. Unmarked brass fittings. Brass buttplate with traces of handling. On the top, the return is decorated with a half lily flower, carefully inlaid and adjusted. Smooth of any engraving.

Perfectly functional lock, straight and clean cocking and half cocking. Oxidation flower cleaned, without perforating corrosion. However : The damascened decoration and gilding on the top of the barrel are cleaned (neither arms of France, nor text are legible). The engraving and chasing on the screws have been smoothed. The half lily flower motifs on the butt plate return and on the front of the trigger guard have had their relief engravings removed (Nb: these are not the simplified fleurons of the second model which, moreover, would be fitted with a "simple" round return butt plate). Prestigious rifle in excellent condition. NB: Rifle as described by Jean Baudriot.
