"Robert Wood" made parts purchases from the Boulton Gun Works in the early 1830s, and Robert Woods is listed in secondary sources as from Pocono, Northampton County, Pennsylvania, in the early 19th century.

This classic Pennsylvania rifle is pictured on page 174 of "The Kentucky Rifle" by John G.W. Dillin and is listed as from the author's collection. The rifle has a beautiful architecture, engraving, inlays, and design overall. The barrel has a silver blade front sight, notch rear sight, "Robert Woods" signed in a brass inlaid panel on top of the breech section with some engraving accents, an engraved tang, and a very deep "*" marking is on the lower right barrel flat at the breech (hidden by the lock).

The lock is marked "J. EDMONDS/WARRANTED" and has some floral and border engraving. It is equipped with a plain trigger. The forend has eight silver wedge escutcheons with wavy line borders and incised line accents. There is a long wear plate between the ramrod entry pipe and trigger guard finial with engraving that nearly matches the Hawk example in the MET noted above.

The silver wrist escutcheon has border engraving and the noted "AS" inscription. The ovoid cheekpiece inlay has a star pattern engraved and wavy lines, and a brass pick holder is under the cheekpiece. The patchbox has a pierced floral pattern finial, heart shaped piercings on the side plates, a very nice engraving, and a release at the rear. The brass toe plate is also engraved. The crescent buttplate is plain. The ramrod has a horn tip and an iron threaded tail end.
