Value of a J. Garner .58 cal?

[BE Wild Willy]

Any ballpark on a price for a fullstock flintlock (I believe it to be a Siler) in good condition marked J.Garner? Search resulted in multiple threads about Jack Garner, just trying to narrow down price for one of his guns in .58 cal. Nothing fancy, guess it would be considered a Po' Boy.

Thanks...BEWW

Saw a Garner recently on TOTW go for IIRC $1019. Nice gun, poor boy, iron furniture, siler prec lock. It was a .54cal . That would be a mid to high price for a po' boy from Garner IMHO.A friend of mine has an almost matching set in flint and prec. Both .54's. Very nice and well put together guns. Good luck!! :wink:

So much of this would depend upon the condition and quality of components. Jack built guns for various price levels and these were then treated differently by their owners. Pictures would help make any estimates a lot more credible.

First rule of gun buying: condition!

Yup, depends on conditions and materials. There's one right now at The Gun Works for $795.
