Joining the British army at age 15, Ferguson was a well known marksman and the inventor of a breechloading rifle. The Ferguson Rifle figured prominently in one of Louis L'Amour's novels of early America, lending its name to the title.
1776
English Major Patrick Ferguson patented this breech loading flintlock rifle in England, 1776. Only about 200 were made. The number '2' stamped on the trigger guard distinguishes this one from the others.
Walnut, iron, brass. L 124.5 cm, L (barrel) 86.4 cm
Morristown National Historical Park, MORR 2375

Morning Darksheare.
They may not have been good soldiers compared to the professional Armies of Europe, but the Colonials where good shots and not afraid to fight on their terms.
