A 1752 model flintlock musket with bayonet dating: Second half of the 18th Century provenance: Piedmont, Two-stage, smoothbore, 17.5 mm cal barrel, octagonal in the first section, with a mark from the reign of Charles Emmanuel III, then round, with a moulded ring at the girdle and foresight. Tang with rear sight and with the mark "N 29". Large French-made flintlock with barely legible mark (probably a crowned "SE", possibly St. Etienne, and "C. GAUD.."). Full stock made of dark wood; butt stock with stamps "CRT" and two mirrored letters "C" under crown; on the left side of the firearm, the name "RISVA" (the soldier's name?) repeated twice. Iron mounts, ramrod and rare bayonet. See "Der Neue Stöckel", Vol. I, p. 423. The signature on the lock is most probably that of C. GAUDIN, documented in St. Etienne from 1728 to 1755. In 1745, he held a contract with the Republic of Genoa.
