    CVA Pennsylvania Flintlock

    I just bought this at auction. I think I got a good price, but I couldn't find any recently sold to compare it to. Do you have any idea the value? IT's typical used condition with a few dings and scratches. Good bore. Working condition. Double trigger. Sorry, this is the only pic I have...

    Percussion Barrel ID

    I just picked up an old rusty percussion barrel, and I'm looking for some ID/age help. There are some markings, but nothing that helps me. There's a 4 over 20 and what looks like "MT" and a symbol (maybe bird?) on the underside. There's what I originally thought was a "P", but might be a horn...

    T/C Flintlock

    I have a T/C Flintlock with a stainless barrel. I think it's a Hawken, but the barrel doesn't have the model on it. The barrel is 15/16" wide and is marked Thompson Center with an address. I did a quick internet search, but didn't see another one quite like it. Did T/C make a Hawken with a...

    Long rifle identification.

    I was hoping someone might be able to identify this percussion rifle. 45 cal. The only marking I see is a capital letter "L" on the inside of the lock. I haven't removed the barrel yet. Also, would you call it a Pennsylvania Rifle, or a Kentucky Rifle, or is there a difference?

    Euroarms of America

    I just bought a Euroarms of America reproduction J P Murray Confederate Calvary carbine in 58 cal, percusion. Very good condition, just a few scrapes on the stock. It was used by a Civil War reenactor who decided he's getting too old for such things. I haven't been able to find a value...

    US percussion barrel proof mark.

    I just bought a 45 inch round percussion barrel. It appears to be smoothbore, but heavily rusted, so may have been rifled at one time. It came up at auction, I didn't even have time to look at it, but it went cheap, so I took a chance. I noticed that it had proof marks when they brought it to...

    Hopkins & Allen Rifle

    I just picked up another percussion rifle. Hopkins & Allen .45 cal. Everything appears to be functioning properly. I'm guessing the ramrod is a replacement, it's about an inch short. The stock is in good condition, the bore is pretty clean with sharp rifling. It doesn't look like it's seen...

    Unusual rear sight.

    I have a percussion pistol with an unusual rear sight. The only marking anywhere is "Made in Spain" on the barrel. The sight is so unique, I thought someone might be able to identify the manufacturer. The elevation is controlled by a spring and a screw hidden inside the stock. The barrel is...

    Palmetto Revolver

    I was just hoping to get a little info on my latest purchase. It's a 44 cal black powder revolver. The only markings I could find is a palm tree in a circle next to a serial number. If I'm correct, this is a Palmetto, probably sold by Dixie Gun Works. I couldn't find a lot of information on...

    Fowler ID

    I just purchased an older fowler. There are no markings that I could find. There is some unique hardware. I'm trying to decide if I should completely strip it, re-blue, refinish, and make it look new; or just do enough restoration to prevent any more deterioration and leave it rustic. (Or...

    Maryland black powder laws?

    I'm a PA resident and I have my eye on some muzzleloaders being offered next week in a Maryland auction. Before I send the auctioneer a bid, I wanted to be sure there wouldn't be a problem when I go to pick up. I emailed the auctioneer, but haven't received a response yet, does MD have any...

    Match lock rifle

    Recent auction find. I bought this match lock rifle just because it looked interesting. I don't have a clue what I'll do with it. I was looking for any info I could get. There don't seem to be any markings other than the star pattern on the pan. The barrel is about 28-1/2" long. It appears...

    I have an Armi Sport reproduction LePage cap lock pistol. It's .45 cal with a second (unused) barrel. I haven't been able to find any info on it's value. Do you have an idea what it would be worth?
