nice find, I had a Seneca 45 when I was a kid, pretty little gun, wish I still had it, it would be great for my daughters

That's a great deal! For some reason I see nice muzzle loaders going for next to nothing at the big gun shows. Lots of para-military rifles, etc, so there aren't many buyers for them. More for us!

That is a SWEET deal! My wife bought me a nice clean used Seneca .36 back in '02 and paid more than that!! Take good care of it. As far as I know, T/C does not have parts for them anymore.

Have to agree. Around My area of Western Washington, everyone seems to be dumping their T/C's and Traditional Side Locks for the new in lines. I have been a kid in a candy store. Besides the Mountain Rifle for $400, I also picked up 2 Hawken Rifles By T/C...First one for $200 and the next for $175. Good pickings for those of Us who enjoy steel and wood!!!!!! Oh Yeah, Both were in .50.

The gun show two weeks back, You could have made a $200.00 profit easy. Even the old CVA Kentuckys were priced higher than that.
