Flintlock Rifle - Reuben Perkins III?

Suspect the rifle may have been Reuben's because of it's apparent age. Tag records the confirmed owners - Isaac Perkins, George Perkins, Isaac Perkins, Vincent Perkins, Paul (Perk) Perkins and Paul Perkins. "It has a Golcher lock and looks like it may have been converted from flintlock to percussion cap. On a closeup, you can see the brass sleeve that was wrapped around the wrist to repair a break." Submitted by Phil Perkins. (father of the current owner, Paul)
