Steve Zihn flintlock guns for sale
      #336224 - 06/01/20 10:20 AM

Hello to all. I made these 2 guns for a man some years ago, and he is loosing his sight. I feel very bad for him, but reality is something we can't avoid. So he has asked me to help him sell the 2 guns as a set. He may agree to break them up and sell each one separately, but at first he wants to try to sell them together.
Both have hand made stocks. The pistol has one of my hand made barrels. I also made the patch box and side plate on the rifle by hand and the butt cap on the pistol too.
The rifle has a 50 cal swamped Colorain barrel and a Chamber lock. The pistol has an L&R lock.

Both guns are 50- caliber.
The owner wishes all correspondence to go through me and all money transactions too. I can be contacted at szihn@wyoming.com The price for the set is $5,100 and I pay the shipping to the 48 states. Any shipments outside the USA or to Alaska or Hawaii will be split with me paying up to $100 in the cost of the shipment and the buyer paying anything over $100.
Payments must be either US Postal Money Orders or cash.

Thanks guys.
Spread the word around. Maybe we can help the poor guy sell the guns. He was an avid shooter and hunter for years. The failing eyesight is a real kick in the gut.

Yes, but no bites yet.

Oh well, this is not actually a dedicated muzzle-loader site, so the coverage is not as wide spread as on some others.

OK, the owner of the 2 guns now says I can sell them individually and break up the "set".

So if anyone is interested in either one, please let me know. He also have a very nice period correct powder horn to sell.
