SUMMARY:Lunch Bite - A Short-Barreled Blunderbuss From the Period of the American Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Historical Programs Manager Andrew Outten discusses a British blunderbuss that was made commercially in London\, ca. 1770-1780. A precursor to the shotgun\, this weapon was often issued to cavalry or naval troops for use in close-quarter combat. This Lunch Bite will offer not only a detailed examination of a blunderbuss from the Institute’s museum collections\, but also a discussion pertaining to the history of blunderbusses\, their technical components and attributes and their various potential uses throughout the American Revolution. \nRegistration is requested. To attend the Lunch Bite in-person at Anderson House\, or to watch virtually\, please use the appropriate form below.\nRegister to Attend the Lunch Bite at Anderson House \nRegister to Attend the Lunch Bite Virtually
