You might want to have that appraised. |

Looks like a powder horn, maybe full of birdshot. How big are the lead balls? rt |

I see you're in Chicago, that might be considered a 'high capacity magazine'. Send it to me for proper disposal (I love blackpowder!). Or have it appraised. |

It's a shot flask designed to dispense two different weights of shot........depending on which slot is engaged. It looks like an old Dixie Gun Works reproduction. Originals had a leather pouch attached to the dispenser.

I'd really like to have it. It's a nice piece. It'd go great in may pawn shop, but I really don't know a lot about old powderhorns. I've got this buddy.... Anybody else watch pawn stars? |
