Wow. What an incredible thing to hold. Looks like the ol' girl can still shoot fine, too. It's in remarkable condition for being 200 years old. I've seen 10-year-old guns in worse shape!
It would be soooooooooooooo interesting to fire it, and determine its accuracy. We hear so many stories about hitting British soldiers at 200 and 300 yards with these rifles. Be interesting to shoot it against a silhouette.
Aw heck, use lawyers for targets. They're the new enemy of America, anyway ... heh.
