Picked this very interesting muzzle loader up last week..it appears to be a double set trigger Swissicon stutzen. The seller claims it is a flint to percussion conversion, .56 caliber. The only markings on it are on the lock plate 'fabrik', everything before it seems deliberately ground off. On the buttplate, middle, and front barrel band is a 'T' in shield marking. Wrist has what appears to be damage from a ball, with what appears to be a pretty old repair with brass strips. Barrel has bayonet lug that seems to have been ground down a bit. What on earth do I have here?
