Left side flat has two crisp cartouches with small inspector initials on & below trigger guard and on comb of stock, in front of buttplate tang and on other parts. Quite a number of these well made rifle/muskets were produced at Colt with many of them going to state militias accounting for their high percentage of high condition pieces still found today.
