I've got a friend who lives out of town who had a relative that died and his widow wants him to get rid of several guns for her. He's not into guns and asked me if I could price them and maybe even sell them for her.
There isn't anything really outstanding (a Win Model 12, a couple of other shotguns, a Cricket, a couple of Savage bolt rifles, etc) but the one that caught my eye is a Thompson Center flintlock. He did not tell me the model but I am assuming a Hawken.
I didn't think there would be a market for it but I looked on GB and several of them out there brought $350 - $700 (unfired).
Does anybody around here use a flintlock ? I'm thinking that one might have to go to Gunbroker.
