This Military Jaeger was used by the Hesse Cassel Jeager Corps which landed in New York in August 1776. Moller states that the Hessian Jeager Corps saw service in almost every battle in the American Revolution. The lock is beautifully made with a fly that pivots around the tumbler shaft, and a large, early, wide and square top frizzen. The patterns for this were made by Robert Fisch of the West Point Museum. We also have a beautiful drawing of this weapon done by Walter Nock. It has a 28 1/2" octagon tapered and flared barrel, available in .62 caliber. The lock plate measures 5 1/4" x 1". The throw of the cock is 1 1/2".
*Included in a Set of Lock Castings. |

We assure you that the quality of our parts is well worth any wait, as many of the items we make have never been offered by anyone before. If you are serious about the authenticity of your weapon then the time will be a small price to pay. Many of the pictures shown on this web site are of original pieces. We do not sell any original pieces on this web site only reproduction's of the original parts we have copied. If the item description does not say assembled then you are buying the castings of that particular item.
