A close friend has recently lost his dad and has inherited some BP guns. He is coming up Saturday so I can teach him a little about them. I have managed to ID a few, but there are some with no markings. Any help would be appreciated!

Here is the 1st...

The two others I have now identified. But I can't find much info.

One is a TC Big Boar 58, and the other a TC Hawkin 54.

Any help with the Big Boar would be greatly appreciated!

I think your first one shown is a “New Orleans Ace,” from Classic Arms. They might be defunct(?).

Classic Arms made a number of economy-minded blackpowder pistol kits, with nameslike “Snake Eyes,” Twister,” and “Duckfoot.”

Here are a few links to get you started on finding more info:

Good luck!
Thanks Jitterbug!
