What is your oldest firearm?

[AK Troutbum]

I got a handful of old Winchester levers, (actually a small arsenal of old Winchester’s in general), but this is probably one of my favorites. It’s a model 1873 chambered in .32 WCF circa 1893.

Oldest is a .62 caliber percussion rifle with an 1848 date on the lock. It is still in good shape and I still shoot and occasionally hunt with it. Next oldest is a W.C. Scott and Sons 12-guage percussion shotgun dated 1865 in excellent, as-restored, condition that handles as would be expected for a best-grade English shotgun. I also hunt with it.

I’d love to see some pictures of these if you wouldn’t mind sharing.

1913 AH Fox is the oldest I still have.

Picked up this fun wall-hanger 10ga for a song a few years ago. Marked "JJ Weston", a Belgian maker, and from what I can tell the gun looks pre-1898 from the proof marks, but not really sure. High likelihood the Wells Fargo stuff is all fabricated, probably in the 1960s, but nobody's been able to tell me either way.

I picked up an old Marlin chambered in 32-40 a couple years ago. It's pre 1920 but not real sure on the age.
