I have a line on 2 BRJ flintlocks. I sold one for a deceased friends family last year, turned a friend onto one from another friend. I won one many years ago and foolishly sold it! I bought a .54 cal BRJ a few years back. Years ago I sold one for a friend to a famous South African Taxidimist Rodney Kretschmar. I held two yesterday afternoon, I'm holding off but it's hard, folks don't give them up until they die or can't use them anymore. Bruce R Jones was a shooter and builder from Friendship Maine. I shot with him at the Eye Of The Hawk in Hope Maine many years ago. A truly nice man and Master Craftsman. I don't believe he is still alive.

Any pictures?
Believe me, these are great. Bruce got $1850.00any years ago. These are less, I am not selling, just helping out a friend, I didn't take my check book or I would have owned the .45 cal. With what's selling here, I would value them at $2500.00 each. You know me, I don't BS. The owner was a highly competitive National shooter. These are better than my .54, but I killed a hog with my .54.

This is the one I bought, a copy of a rifle found in a home in Boston. The original was featured on the cover of Muzzle blasts. The rifle is a .50 cal and was built in 1995. Pardon the drool!
