THIS IS MY LATEST ANTIQUE I MADE UP FOR MODERN MUZZLELOADING SHOTGUNNERS. THIS GREAT FLASK WAS MADE BY THE " AMERICAN FLASK AND CAP COMPANY." THEY WENT OUT OF BUSINESS IN 1898 SO THIS ONE HAS TO BE AT LEAST 123 YEARS OLD. YES, THE LEATHER POUCH WAS TRASHED FROM AGE BUT I BUILT A NEW ONE USING MY 9 OUNCE STEER HIDE, KIDNEY SHAPED ROUND BALL POUCH AS A REPLACEMENT. THE CHARGER HAS A CHOICE OF 1-OZ, OR 1-1/4 -OZ OF SHOT. THE CHARGER IS ALMOST LIKE NEW AFTER I REMOVED 123 YEARS OF TARNISH OFF OF THE BRASS. THE "V" SRING WORKS FINE AND THE TINY ADJUSTMENT SCREW WORKS WELL ALSO. IT THREADS ON AND OFF FOR SHOT LOADING.THIS BEAUTY IS READY TO PROVIDE ANOTHER 100 YEARS OF SERVICE TO ANOTHER SHOTGUNNER. I AM OFFERING THIS FLASK FOR .00 + .00 SHIPPING.
