I am just testing the waters to see what anyone may have or want to sell / trade for, as far as a flintlock Hatfield.
Not looking for a Pedersoli, only an original Hatfield (pre 1983 I believe, but could be wrong). An original would not have any proof marks on the barrel and would not be marked Hatfield on the barrel from what I have read.
For some reason, I "need" one now.
Having both locks would be a plus, (percussion and flintlock as they could be had either way).
Prefer a .50, but a .32 would work also.
I was bidding on one (search here for my pics etc.) and I missed it by $10 I just found out.
I do have something that I have just very recently acquired that I may be willing to trade even up for one if that interests anyone... I do like "horse trading".
It is a "non-traditional" hand gun, bp, brass, and has the name Ruger in it, and never fired..... (too obvious?) heheh….
If not interested in a trade, I can spend "real" money for a nice, clean, functional Hatfield for the right price!
