This is Thompson Center flint lock, .50cal with set trigger in near perfect condition. It's something my Father monkeyed with back in the 60's or early 70's perhaps. I shot it one time and it's very accurate with great iron sights and nice trigger, but muzzle loaders aren't my thing, so I have little knowledge about value. I'd like to sell it to a local to avoid shipping hassle, but whatever. Email my website if interested and shoot me a number or what you have to trade. Note: I collect airguns. Daisy, Crosman, Sheridan, Benjamin...etc.
For a serious flintlock shooter if bore is nice 375.00 - 475.00 only because T/C is an American made gun. Muzzleloading purists are getting few and far between.
I don't think this model is being made anymore, but it should move quickly in those areas where a traditional flinter is required for hunting. Take a look at www.muzzleloadingforum.com bet you could sell it there.
This one looks like a Hawken model thats missing the brass patch box and maybe the brass butt plate. Very clean models bring in the $400 range used, or at least were a few years back. Prices may have gone up. I don't know how much the missing pieces will hurt the sale price.
The flintlock does bring more money than the percussion model for sure. This one would be a great candidate to brown the barrel and do some stock work to give it that antique look. Now is the time to sell with flintlock seasons around the corner.
Tron, a good place to try and sell is Pennswoods.com
It is a online classified buy sell trade page that covers PA and surrounding states and would be a good place to try and sell it.
Renegade had Blue furniture and an oversize trigger guard to accomodate a gloved trigger finger and no patchbox in stock unless some one changed the stock sometime
