I recently inherited a bp gun that I know nothing about and appears to be loaded so I can't
take it anywhere to have it appraised or anything.(They frown on carrying loaded guns here
in Dallas)
![Roll Eyes ::)](https://www.cascity.com/forumhall/Smileys/cowboys/rolleyes.gif)
go figure....
It has little copper colored loads in the grip end of the chamber and jelly/lube stuff in the
front holes of the cylinder is why I assume it to be loaded. (Now ya'll know how little I know
about it!)
Anyway, here's the description of it and if anyone can help me or send me to help I'd be
forever grateful. And if anyone is interested in it, I don't plan on using it and would be
interested in selling or trading for something a modern city-fied gal can use.
Actual writing on gun:
Western Arms Corp. Santa Fe, N.M.
44 Cal.
Black Powder Only
94746
Patent N. AD PN
"Engaged 18 May 1840" and
Sail ships engraved on chamber

What a website and what a fascinating bunch of characters in it!!
Thanks Ya'll.
