Looking for source of 48" or longer barrels for Fusil Boucanier

[armchair_gunner]

I am looking to construct a late 17th/early 18th century fusil boucanier gun. While the furniture and lock are easy enough to find through places like Track of the Wolf and Rifle Shoppe, finding a barrel that goes beyond the mid-40's appears to be very difficult. According to Gilkerson's book Boarders Away II, the common range for maritime fusils boucanier guns is between 48" and 60" inches, with mid 50's sounding pretty common.
But, who makes a barrel that long these days? At the minimum, I would like a 48", but if I could get something like 54" that would be ideal. Do any of you know who would be capable of doing that? I've heard of a gentlemen named Ben Coogle might, but I haven't been able to find much in the way of contact information. Any help would be appreciated.
Also, depending on the price, I may have a few friends looking to build guns like this, so hopefully any new sources for these barrels aren't just a one shot thing.
Thanks for all your help in advance.

Ed Rayl, Charles Burton, Bobby Hoyt, John Getz and other custom barrel makers will make you one within 6-18 months.

I found one sight that listed Charles Burton's barrel prices back in October '11 (so it's relatively recent), and I found those prices reasonable. I'll try him and Robert Hoyt since I am very familiar with the Gettysburg area and Fairfield is down the road with it.
Thanks for the advice!

I've had barrels from all the above and am very satisfied. Charles Burton's prices are very good.

Just talked to Bobby Hoyt last week. He said he's running about 6 months. JFYI. Rick.
