Very nice, very cool piece you got there son. I should be so lucky to have a gun like that one. Do your due diligence on it which is a large part of the fun of have these historic firearms, find out its history and potential provenance. Since it came from a family member, did the original owner use it in the service? Lots to learn. After that, get it checked out and shoot it safe to do so. That old is a black powder only proposition and there are many references for loading and shooting that fine piece of history.
Nice one, man. Nice.
