The rifle slung on a strap is a single-barrelled, smoothbore, 12-gauge, percussion cap hunting weapon. The stock is made of sycamore wood and is hand carved. The carving depicts a dragon holding the edge of a stock in its mouth; nine teeth are visible. The banded part of the dragon’s body blends with the lock. In the 2nd half of the 19th century, the rifle was made, according to a factory pattern, by Wojciech Kułach, aka Wawrzyńcok, who was from Gliczarów. It was taken from a poacher named Bukowski-Tyrała from Kościelisko by the decision of the board managing the Zakopane estates of count Władysław Zamoyski. In 1931, the shotgun was purchased for the Tatra Museum from the collection of Marian Adam Liberak (1890–1931). He was a fan of folk art from Podhale, a journalist and forester, and a forest district manager in the Tatra Mountains in the 1920s.
