see attached info on this odd gun.....before I dove into the proofmarks I figured I would post it here for some opinions. I do not know if this was converted from cap and ball, because according to some books some were converted.

Bob's got it!

 

Where do you come up with these weird guns??

 

Are they all from the same owner?

Thanks Bob, .....and no they are from different Owners. You can't believe some of the guns the people get out of their attics up here in north west Jersey

And who knows what's store within the walls of some of the older homes up that way.......

Went to the Philly Armory gun show today (meh!) but it was interesting that there was a Snider-Enfield there for sale. Of course he had it mismarked as "American Civil War". No price on it (priceless?) and he was too busy for me to stick around.

 

Adios,
