Musket Caps?

[Smokey Plainsman]

Every single place is out of musket sized caps.

I desperatly need a tin or two in order to shoot my Maynard carbine.

Does ANYONE have a source for these caps that are in stock? Or are they a thing of the past?

Both these places say they have them. I have never done business with nor can vouch for either, perhaps someone else has experience with them.

These are both scams. Buffalo Arms is legit and has them in stock.

I’ve used the musket caps Buffalo Arms has in stock without issue in my M1841, would recommend them.

Price is way too low and only accepts Zelle, Apple Pay, Venmo & PayPal.

Price also too low, only accepts Zelle, Cash App & PayPal.

I agree with DeeTV, both scams.

What? How can you tell that? I just placed an order for 600 RWS musket caps from the second sight, reloading depot.

The transaction appeared to go through??

No option to pay with a regular credit card, prices that are too low. Let us know when you receive your caps. RWS caps are currently around $130/1000 OTC.

Oh the transaction went through guaranteed. I hope you get your caps.

I'm sure the $$ part of the transaction went through but it's possible that's as far as it went. I hope that the deal is legitimate for your sake. Please keep us informed on how it works out as we all would like to find caps at those prices.

You should always google up a review on any site you are not familiar with. A couple of clicks would have informed you that reloading depot has been labeled a scam. Good luck and if you used a credit card it may work out for you. Hopefully I am wrong and you get your caps. Did they charge you a hazmat fee? If not, pretty much a definite scam.

I see you are in Illinois. If you are anywhere near Lebanon Indiana you might check with Fall Creek Suttlery. They list a couple different brands of musket caps on their site but only sell them in the retail store, or at reenactments (765) 482-1861
