In another hundred years someone will find all my guns at the bottom of Lake Travis as they went overboard last weekend. They were well oiled so they should still be identifiable as firearms.

I foresee a rash of boating accidents in the near future.

It's a British Tower Enfield model 53 in .577 caliber. Here's another just like it dated 1861(second from top). Top is a repro of same.
