Title
A name given to the resource
German Jaeger
Description
An account of the resource
This German Jaeger-style rifle offers a fine example of the sport hunting rifles brought to Pennsylvania by the early German and Swiss settlers of the early 18th century. The term “Jaeger,” meaning hunter, or “the hunt,” in German applied to these sporting rifles which were the forerunner for the later developed American-Pennsylvania Rifle of southeastern Pennsylvania. American rifle technology and development would spread into central Pennsylvania and southward into Maryland, Virginia and the back country of the Carolinas.
This Jaeger Rifle includes a typical heavy well-constructed stock to support a pinned octagonal-shaped iron barrel. The barrel mounts a fixed rear sight located above the lock plate. The butt of the stock includes a sliding wood patchbox cover concealing an inside compartment for rifle patches, grease or extra ignition flints. The rifle's brass furniture and other components are surrounded by raised ornate carving of a floral design, typical for European hunting rifles of this style. This rifle also has a flame-pattern floral spray on the ends of the brass trigger guard and butt plate. The rifle's lock is typical German design and includes a faceted flash pan and squared frizzen. The iron rammer, or ramrod, includes a trumpet-style end. This Jaeger rifle is missing the rear sling swivel which was originally screwed into the underside of the stock, behind the trigger guard.

German Jaeger Rifle
Description
An account of the resource
This Jaeger Rifle includes the typical brass furniture characteristic of many Jaeger Rifles. This example, however, omits the usual hinged wood patchbox found on earlier patterns. Decorative raised carvings highlight the heavy butt stock, barrel tang, lock plate and other areas of the rifle. The lock is a typical German design with a beveled pattern and faceted flash pan. The octagonal iron barrel is pinned to the stock and includes a raised brass front sight. The iron rammer includes a button-style end. Like most Jaeger Rifles, this example is a civilian sporting rifle, used in a military application during America's War for Independence.

Description
An account of the resource
This musket of German manufacture, displays a myriad of both Dutch and German manufactured components, hence the identification as a German-Dutch Musket.

The barrel includes a large raised elliptical front sight, a common feature on German 18th century muskets. The brass furniture includes a German-style trigger-guard plate, raised side plate and end butt plate secured by two large rounded screws. The iron rammer is secured by four brass thimbles under the stock. The iron lock plate is flat and includes a faceted flashpan, another common German design feature.
