Pedersoli Mortimer .54 Flintlock - Non FFL

clanhanson · Apr 20, 2024

Up for sale is my gorgeous, mint condition Pedersoli Mortimer .54 cal flintlock rifle. These are widely considered the best flintlock Pedersoli has ever produced and one of the best locks in the industry.

Very few rounds fired, but it's a tack driver with a quick lock that throws spark wonderfully. Utilizes 3/4" flints and .535 round balls (.530 worked well, too). Features a half cock safety and flip up rear sight (~100 and ~300 yard apertures).

Condition is nearly new with only minor dings and blemishes. Bore is excellent and metal parts are free from any hint of corrosion. Wood finish is great with only a few small nicks/scratches. Inlets are well done and snug. Ramrod features one concave, threaded brass end and one flat brass end. Metal finish is a mixture of bluing, browning, and case hardening (frizzen is polished).

Free shipping to your doorstep. These are around $2000 new and highly sought after, don't miss out.

I don't know black powder from shinola, but that's a fine lookin' smokepole!

These are good shooters indeed.
As well as being pretty historically correct for an English Rifle of the 1830's - 40's era.

Difficult to find new...let alone used....excellent rifle...excellent price.
Good luck with your sale...!

Thank you! I did some research when I bought it many moons ago and supposedly it's a copy of an 1815 Mortimer but most feel it's closer to the era you've stated.

The lock is dang near as good as my Kibler and flints last much longer which is nice.
