If Bobby did the lining, then I'm definitely interested.

Who lined the barrel? I'm interested and have a Pietta 1860, like NIB that I'd be willing to trade towards purchase.

What is the diameter of the bullets.

I have owned and skirmished with a Sharps, a Gallagher, a Pietta Smith and a Maynard. The Maynard was super accurate and quick on the line. It was my last Skirmish carbine. Second would be my Garrett Sharps and my Shiloh Sharps. As far as the lack of a forearm on the Maynard, get a leather...

Would definitely purchase one.

So who was the manufacturer? Zoli, Euroarms, Pedersoli? I'm guess Euroarms.

And I received my Large Elk Antler Pan Primer a few days ago and likewise, it is outstanding in quality and craftsmanship. Hoghly recommend Two Feathers!

So what are you asking for it?

I sold a Tom Nixon 1855 Two-Band a couple of years ago for $1700 IIRC. Great rifles and I would be interested in yours.

I'll take it. Sending you a PM.

PM me how you want the payment and where to send.

I'll take this.

Let us know what you find out.

As a follow up, the rifle arrived last Friday and I spent a few hours making a repair to the toe of the stock where a previous repair was separating at the glue line. On Sunday afternoon, I drove 35 minutes to my club range and spent three hours shooting this .40 and my .20 ga Po-Boy. I started...

Who is the barrel maker?

I have wanted a .40 cal flintlock for several years now and bit the bullet last week. I bought a Lehigh .40 cal with a Bill Large 42", 1-66 barrel from BigSkyRambler here on the forum. While I am waiting to take possession, I have been accumulating the various accoutrements. I now have a Lee two...
