SOLD Leonard Day Dutch Trade Musket - Unfired

[Glenn Osborne]

Still paring down my collection! Gun weights about 8 lbs and is 57" overall with a 2' barrel. Bore is .50. This piece has never been fired and used for display only. Nice gun from noted maker of early pieces. Price is $1500 with shipping, insurance (if wanted), and PP fees paid by buyer. I am selling this gun at a little below what I paid.4

42” barrel

How old is this gun? It is .50 caliber? Usually these are .62.

I bought it 4/5 years ago and it has only been displayed in my collection. I was guessing about the caliber as I measured the muzzel. It may very well be .62 as that was my first impression. Sorry I can’t be more specific. The condition is pristine and it has never seen a grain of BP.

Fun fact- some of the images in this post showed up in FB Market Place today. (Saying the FB poster ripped off these images as a scam, not that our muzzleloader post is)

Maybe the op is trying again on fakebook?

It was actually the English Lock gun, and not the Dutch trade gun. My bad.

LOL! This thread is 5 years old, my friends. Shouldn’t have been bumped in the first place…

Just my opinion if it’s sold mark it SOLD

The seller hasn't been on here in four years. I'm gonna guess the gun sold. I only hope Mr Osborne is still among us. I'm gonna lock this ad.
