I would buy mine at local Wall Mart. One year a guy from the hardware store bought them all and marked them
up %150 in his store. The next year when they came out I bought them all right in front of him. He started whining
so I pointed out what he had done. He whined a little more and followed me out. Thought we were going to get
into it in the parking lot, nothing happened. He was parked two cars down and went back to the hardware store.
I know because I followed him. This year Wall Mart employees told me they were not carrying ML stuff anymore.
All they have left is two inline MLs. This sucks.

I hope people found out about this and a spend their money elsewhere. I'm all for supporting small businesses, but when they do manure like that, makes me wonder.

It is stuff like this that keeps my flinter working overtime. I use brass shim stock to roll my own for the six guns. I recently added an inline that uses shotgun primers.
Things are getting silly!

What thickness works best from the brass shim stock?

I think your smart to cover the bases at this point in time. If you limit yourself to one traditional niche disappointment can follow. While I will continue to shoot mostly flinters, I too want to insure I have other options.
 
Geez didn't know about this. I shoot only flintlocks. But a year ago I bought out an estate and their was several # 11 tins in a box, maybe thirty or so of mixed variety. CCI, Remington an others. Guess I best hang on to them...

Not surprised that folks have ‘high’ asking prices, though I am a bit surprised when items sell for those prices. But not real surprised. The market will set the price paid, that pesky supply and demand thing.

Then the Irish made an example of one Captain Boycott, coining a new term in addition to making an example of him; seems to have been forgotten nowadays; athough more recently in New York City......

Have anyone been to a live auction that has any kind of guns up for sale. I was at a auction today and a 22 heritage pistol that you can buy at Rual King anyday for under $150 dollars went for $350. Two Rugers 22 went for even more. These were used guns to boot.

I quit going to auctions many years ago. The last one I went to was ridicules prices. They had sold an item and came back after putting up a couple more and asked for the guy who bought to come up. They told him it wasn't supposed to have been sold it was broken asked if he still wanted it. He said no so they put it back up for sale pointing out it was broken. Well same guy was high bidder again only the second time he bid even more than he bid originally.
