I am 62 years old and my entire life a musket hung on the wall in my home. I now I am in possession of said musket. The gun was never inspected while at my home. After receiving the gun I noticed the gunsmith is Joseph Menton. On the other side of the gun is another gun Smith‘s name William Ellis. The gun has no production markings it is not a replica. My father found it in a barn when he was young. Sent an email to the Manton company in England and they said this is a very interesting and rare piece .
I am looking for someone to shed more light on the subject or guide me in the correct direction to get more information. Personally I believe it is a genuine Manton that was experimented on by Ellis
