Description

In a letter to Horace Kephart on December 28, 1918, Morve L. Weaver provides additional details about his rifle collection. Mr. Weaver highlights specific guns, such as the Remington .22 (a derringer rifle), an unidentified rifle with a broken handle, Wesson & Leavitt, and Prescott (rarest gun he owns). He continues to search for rifles, particularly American, but explains the difficulty of not finding or acquiring a Colt ’49 Navy model, flint, or percussion rifles in the area.
