Typical finish,Steel furniture, no patch box or grease hole
What he wants and me being tight. Owner said look for what others have sold for and well argue later.

But… only one and you know how memory is

I've seen Jack's Soddy rifles bring as much as $3000 for flint guns. Never seen one in percussion so I can't say what he gets.

Supposed this one was the first one he made in 45 cal.
Why the owner wanted percussion is a mystery to me.

Nobles books show Soddy rifles (Pikeville shooters) predominantly being percussion.
Also, 20th Century photos.

Yes, Soddy rifles were made late mostly for beef shoots and such. Most of the ones made today are flint because that's the going trend.
