Picked up a Pedersoli alamo long rifle .50cal flintlock today at the gun shop and just wondering what its worth? I've found from as low as $670 to as high as $800. Just trying to figure out a fair price to re-sell it at.
Great shape inside and out, i don't think it was used much at all. You should see the sucker spark! holy cow it looks like one of those strikers you use to light your cutting torches. Pure white spark.

Why sell it? You bought it. The money is gone and you won't miss it a month from now. You don't have to feed it every day or clean up after it. Besides, after you shoot it a few times you might want to sell one of those CVAs instead.

i have my kentucky flinter which i barely shoot due to BP being harder for me to get. When i have it, i go through it so fast that it gets expensive. Just one of those deals you know. The 50-70 is another one of those deals LOL. I'd love to shoot it but that ammo im sure would really hurt me.

original. This is the 3 band trap door. Im trying to research it but the 3 band seems to be a rare deal. Im at my sisters right now so this one will get a good look over once i get home and can use my tools on it and take the barrel and lock off for inspection for originality.
