If i could afford Samar~~

Gonna have to get another scabbard for this one I just refinished it.

Those with the two piece stock and the brass band in the middle are replicas, Samar. Back in the 1970's they were imported by CVA, but others may be selling basically the same thing. I have one I made back then, almost the same except mine had the wide band of brass sheet metal to cover the joint, instead of the narrow one. Oh, and mine wasn't as pretty, either.

  Them ol Jukars and ardesas from spain might not be the most historical pieces but by gawd every one ive ever had or shot are danged accurate rifles. Sitting here lookin at one right now trying to decide on restoking it in a nice piece of wood. Them Spainiards knew how to make a good barrel.

Looks quite elegant... Rick
The black finish has roots in original guns , Tenn. Mtn & Poor Boy were often in a black tar paint
as the wood was often just plain

The gun is a CVA KA707  Kentucky Rifle it was made by Jukar in Spain , offered in both 45 & 50 cal.
Offered in both Kit & finished guns....Percussion or Flintlock.
They were surprisingly accurate for a Production rifle , Bobby Lee took 1st. place at Friendship one year with a CVA ... much to the horror of some High dollar custom owners . Bobby was featured in CVA printed advertisement for about a year after that,
before going they went the in-line product route.

FIE also imported the same Rifle,  and the one Pony Express mentions ( but I don't think at the same time)
The 1 1/2" sheet brass band wrapped the joint of the 2 piece stock to stiffen the union.
The thin narrow spacer was used with two brass pins about 1 1/2" long to attach the two piece stock.

CVA KA707 kit sold for $79.95 ... on sale a Woolco $39.95 when it closed it's doors in 1982.

That really looks good, Rick. I like the way you did it with the black.It hardly looks like the same piece.
