CLOSED Custom .45 Caliber Mule Ear rifle

[BruceHH]

I have the below custom built mule ear rifle for sale. I built the gun and completed it in July of this year. It has been sighted in and shot approx. 50 times. It is very accurate with a .445 round ball and .016 lubed patch. The price is $1,675 which includes full insurance coverage and shipping in a custom wood crate - to normal postal areas. I accept USPS Money Orders or I can take credit/debit cards with the added 3% cost of using a card.

For partial sale/trade, I am in need of some Thompson Center Hawken, Renegade, Cougar, Seneca or Cherokee rifles in either flint or percussion. They must be in good shape, have all the correct parts and not have any rust or pitting in the barrel. No straight trades will be considered. About the maximum value I can go on the regular Thompson's is $400 and that is the very top end for a mint rifle. I will be modifying them and can not afford to tie up much money on the front end.

Bringing back up with a few changes. I no longer need any of the Thompson Center rifles for my project builds.

Also, I am reducing the sale price to $1,575 which includes full value insurance and shipping in a wooden crate.
