I found a '1960 New Model Army', the Belgian FAUL replica of the .44 Colt 1860 Army, aka 'Centaure' at an auction over the weekend. It was quite dirty but not corroded. I cleaned it up and stoned some rough spots on the bolt and hand and their channels and it's a very nice gun. I corresponded with the FROCS (the group of collectors of this model) and found it was made in 1969. A very nice piece. I also picked up a nice T/C .50 Hawken that was very well done from a kit. I'll post those pics in the Percussion Rifle forum next week. Ya gotta get out and wade through the auction knick knacks once in a while....
