USA Revolving Barrel Percussion Rifle

USA Revolving Barrel Percussion by Chuck Reddick

Size: 45" Long

This rapid firing rifle was developed in 1855 and used throught the civil war.

Chuck Reddick meticulously creates each piece using only traditional methods and materials. His dyes are from plants and minerals such as red from prickly pear juice, yellow from Mormon tea and purple from sweetgrass. Many of his beads are antique trade beads. Round brass buttons from old high-button shoes, discs from red-line turtle shells and black bear claws complete the authentic look.
