CS Menndenhall/Jones/Gardner rifle

A friend inherited this rare MJG rifle made in Greensboro NC. Thought you guys might like to see it before he sells it. I have only handled 3 and see a few others in museums. Mendenhall and Gardner were Quakers. Mendenhall was asked not to return to church for making implements of war. There were several variations, see Hill/Antohony’’s book on Confederate firearms.
