Variants
There is another known variant that was created around the late 1840s that used a side-by-side barrel configuration and was fired using a percussion cap mechanism rather than a flintlock mechanism. Although this gun was also a Boyer rifle, the gunsmith was not the same as the earlier 1800 variant.
