A friend down in Florida (I'm in Indiana) sent me these pictures and asked for my help identifying and estimating what it was worth. I have asked her if there's any identification markings on it and apparently not. Any ideas folks?
Typical late period Ohio/Indiana rifle. Until I saw the closeup of the lock area I thought it was a recent build because of the finish on the wood.A friend down in Florida (I'm in Indiana) sent me these pictures and asked for my help identifying and estimating what it was worth.

Note the brass fixture attached to the bottom of the forearm of this rifle in the 9th picture down in the series:Does it look to you that there's something missing under the forearm?
Thank you. Does it look to you that there's something missing under the forearm? Check the last picture.
