Need help identifying an old percussion black powder rifle. Don't know to much about it.
Total length is 5 feet, has octagon barrel (which has small circles around the end of the barrel), the percussion assembly has the word "Leman" on it, no other markings on the barrel or stock. See photos for more details.

I think you may have a "Frankengun" with a Leman lock. Leman made a goodly number of rifles for the trapper and Indian trade, but that stock doesn't resemble one of his arms. The rifle as a whole has kind of a Tennessee rifle vibe to it.
