Man, I was just looking at the ML rifles on MidSouth Shooters Supply site.

I bought my GPR .54 flintlock from MidSouthon Nov 21st. for $389.81 plus$8.60 S&H($398.41 total). Their current price is $435.68 plus $12.32 S&H ($448 total).

Its crazy. Pretty soon with this economy, they'll be eating those rifles rather than selling them.

Well that is one more reason why I do not need to purchase that model rifle now... things are looking up.

I believe the kits are still $300[8D]

Great deal IMO, its a wonderfully balanced shooting machine. A big guy like you cayugad, needs a new BIG bore rifle to carry around. Shoulders quickly, beautiful solid European Walnut stock, A lock that throws big yellow sparks into the pan.....

Hey, that's right! Those fools in congress are getting ready to spread some "re-elect us" money around in the name of boosting the economy. May as well spend it on shooting supplies.
