MODIFIED 1792 MILITIA RIFLE WITH POWDER HORN & POUCH Description: This gun is a reproduction of one of the 15 rifles that Lewis acquired from the Harpers Ferry Armory. The rifle was the 1792 militia rifle, modified at Harpers Ferry by adding sling swivels, removing the old locks, and making two new locks for each rifle so they would have a spare if one broke. A powder horn and pouch was provided for each rifle. Credit: Photo courtesy William L.
