My builders interpretation of the Model 1792 Contract Rifle. The first model rifle contracted for by the US War Dept. He christened this rifle "Ol’ Whiskey”, in honor of the first conflict this model rifle was used in. The Whiskey Rebellion. Marked so in inside of patchbox lid.

"Come, shall we go and kill us venison?
And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
