Value of TC and Markwell (?) Caplocks

[Richard Konish]

Neighbor is cleaning out his Dad's stuff and has these two for sale.

1. TC 45 caplock, not sure what model (patriot?). Appears unfired, no serious marks, no box or papers.

2. Markwell 50, never heard of them, also appears unfired.

Don't know how to post pics but can send with my cell phone. Realize this is asking for a shot in the dark but would say at least 90% plus on condition.

What would be a fair price to ask for them?
When I get a best guess will post in the for sale section.

I'm not familiar with the Markwell 50, but the Patriot if in excellent condition is probably in the $300-$400 range. Others here may be able to give you a more precise value.

The price quoted is within reason, cannot help with the other. You hear of prices from $300 to $500.

Must remember there are no factory parts available for the future, for some that will be a deal killer.

There's a lot of posts that contain comments about Markwell guns.

Others posts said that they shoot as reasonably well as other inexpensive Spanish made guns of that time period.

I just bought a Markwell percussion pistol for $60. Did you buy the Markwell? How does it shoot?
