: I've watched the movie many, many times now and I can't get a decent enough look at the two guns, My gut feeling is that chingachgook Had a french Fusil, the stock outline looked like a type D fusil. I believe in the book he had a short barreled large bore musket but its been ages since I've read cooper's novel(and I live 5 miles from Cooperstown how dare I!?)
Hi Matt,
Where do you live? I went to school at Hartwick College in Oneonta and worked in Cooperstown. I spent much of my childhood in Seager, near Margaretville.
