T/C .50 Cal. New Englander Barrel

[Rum River]

What have folks seen as to a .50 New Englander barrel ONLY for sale?
Any input on value?

I'm posting this here instead of the classifieds as a 'want to buy' because I ain't quite sure if I'm ready to buy.

I've owned a 12 ga. New Englander for a long time and like it.
Every once in a while I think about trying to find a .50 barrel for it.

Not sure why, there are other .50's in the rack.

They come and go. Right now, it seems to be the thing to sell. A few weeks ago there was only one.

Finding a hawken barrel is harder than a new englander right now!

New englanders are/a work horse barrel if you can find one in good condition.

I’m really happy to have the trifecta for mine, 50,54 and GM 12 gauge. It took a few years, but I’ve got a killer combo now. Good luck in the search, they are out there.

Hang on to it , I got one that is in the process of becoming a flintlock New Englander barrel. Gonna saw off the snail, plug and grind then drill the touch hole. Just got a flint lock that fits right in the stock for a deal.

Remember the Tree Hawk barrel will fit and has 1/20 twist. Grey hawk will fit and has 1/48 like the New Englander. Hope this helps!

The list that Chorizo provided resulted in my following up one of the hits - and driving to Iowa yesterday. I had to take my wife to the airport anyway, so I had already driven over an hour in the right direction.

That makes it all a "have to", right?
Right?

Anyway, my new .50 cal barrel is bright and shiny inside and out. I'm as sure as can be it's unfired. Haven't shot it yet but the barrels swapped out with zero problems.
