SOLD .58 cal 1863 Remington Zouave reproduction rifle

[Flintlock Whiskey]

I know the history of this rifle from the day it was pulled out of the box. Made by A. Zoli (Italy) in the late 70's. Been very well taken care of and has been in storage for the last 15 yrs. I/We used to shoot 500+ gr mine balls out of it and when that bullet whacked something, it really made a splash, good times. This was my father's gun (mine was stolen) and I have to re-home it, I will have several more being listed soon. I prefer to make the sale in my state of Arizona and face to face. Buyer needs to provide state issued I.D. to prove citizenship. If it does not sell I will make arrangements to go national with it. Contact me here
$300.00 cash.

My friend, for your security, I would recommend that you edit your post and remove your personal email address. Dark forces on the web look for that sort of thing and may use your personal information for nefarious purposes. The "private messaging" or "conversation" system on this board is easy to use, and nobody sees the communication except you and the person communicating with you. Maybe the moderators can see private conversations, I don't know, but they are very discreet. Once you get a conversation started, you can share your email and physical address and phone number privately.

You have a nice-looking Zouave rifle there, at a very good price. Good luck with your sale!

Thank you sir, I did it without even thinking about it. Will correct it.

hmmmmm I'm tempted and I'm close.... lemme think about it...

no rust visible to me in the photos of the muzzle, how does it look if you shine a flashlight down the bore?

did you all have any left over Minie balls that are included? or a mold?

(oh, state ID does not prove citizenship, only residency)

another question, is that nipple for std perc caps or musket caps?

Dark down the bore (really need to get a bore light) with a silver/grey breechplug. Don't have the mine balls, but have to go through my late Uncle's collection of bullet molds. Might be one in there, it will be a while before I can get to it. Understood about the I.D., what else can I ask for?

Your only legal obligation when person to person selling a firearm is asking for an id. In Ohio, anyway. State law can and does vary. However...BP and muzzleloaders aren't considered "firearms" by the atf. That is why we can ship to each other directly. Otherwise, we would have to use a third party with an ffl to complete transactions
