Here is an octagonal barreled very nice New York Target Rifle, very similar in design to "Pennsylvania" and "Kentucky" style rifles, but definitely with a straighter overall profile. It features a VERY heavy 33 1 4" long two stage half octagon half round barrel, and measures 48 1 2 in overall length. It has the standard appointments one would usually see on a target rifle,
