SOLD .54 Custom Lancaster Rifle

[MTCossack]

I have a flintlock Lancaster longrifle in .54 that I wasn't planning on selling, but I keep thinking about a different style (Buck's County) or a smoothbore, so I'll consider selling if anyone is interested.

I paid $1500 for it just over a year ago. It shoots very well. I haven't killed a deer with it, but I have shot gophers with it, and it'll murder pop cans with the best of them! I am meticulous about cleaning and there's no rust. It has a swamped C-weight Rice barrel with radius rifling and a Chambers Deluxe siler lock.

Here is the maker's website: http://kentsmithlongrifles.blogspot.com/
and another write-up about him: http://contemporarymakers.blogspot.com/2014/05/around-web-kent-smith-longrifles.html

Photos of my gun are in post #54 of this thread: https://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/...ifle-for-1st-flintlock-purchase.109711/page-3


I could let it go for $1250 +shipping.
I'll send newer photos and any detail shots you'd like if you're interested.
