Anyone ever heard of a 1849 with "Heartford" stamped on the top of the barrel? Who made them? Any ideas?

You don't mean "Hartford" do you? If so, here's a good explanation:

Dixie Gun Works imported a 49 Hartford made by Palmetto...Brescia, Italy.
"Track of the Wolf" & Dixie may still carry some parts
Tho' VTI may be your best bet.

Thanks for the answers! The shop wants $115.00 for it. May pick it up to play with this winter. The action seemed a lil bit rough, If I can't get it up & running I will part it out or sell it off whole. Hope it's worth it.
