I've got to put it all back together and the breechplug is out of it enabling to to look down the bore. The gun is a little dusty but it doesn't look like it has been fired much, if at all. The bore is real shiny so I don't know if it is just the stainless or if it is chrome lined. It also has both the #11 & musket nipple with it. Don't know if anyone makes a 209 conversion kit or if another brand might fit. The barrel contains your usual warnings along with the Navy Arms Country Boy 1-32 twist. On the side with the warnings it also has the cursed "made in China". I did email Navy Arms and got an almost instant reply stating that a copy of the manual would be mailed to me tomorrow morning. I guess I'll find out more when the manual arrives. I'll let you know how it shoots. It comes up quick and feels good handling it. May just be a diamond in the rough. Didn't cost hardly anything so if I'm disappointed in how it shoots I won't be upset with what I paid for it.
