Got three early Zouaves taking up space in my safe:
#1 (SOLD PENDING FUNDS) is a Navy Arms Zoli from 1971. VG bore @ .580. Decent trigger about 5 lbs. but crisp. I've never shot this gun (didn't have a mould for that size. Stock is very orange (birch?) with a few scrapes. Asking $300
#2 (SOLD PENDING FUNDS) is a 1964 vintage Hy-Hunter with a Numrich replacement barrel that was relined by Bob Hoyt. This was my first musket as a teenager. Shoots a .575 bullet. Has a lockplate marked "Remington 1863" that was only on the very first few until Remington sued. Asking $325
#3 is a Lyman lock and stock with a Numrich replacement barrel. This was a skirmish gun from the 1970's; you can still see the outline of the annual inspection sticker on the trigger guard. bore is .574+. Bore looks very good but I never shot it, so . . . Asking $300.
Will make photos available when/if I get camera working
