I acquired this in a trade. I don't shoot muzzle loaders-except for my cannons!

As such I would like to move it down the road to someone who could make use of it for parts or shooting.

Nise 1837 mfg. it appears to may have been converted to a shotgun at some point as it has a hole for a bead sight as well as a fabricated front sight to be used with the rear musket sight. Bore has light surface rust throughout but appears to be shootable.

Uploading pics has been unsucessful. Here is a link to my photobucket area with the Potsdam pics.

Looking for $250 plus shipping.

I can use reloading dies, presses, other equipment, regular cartridge rifles, brass, bullets, powder etc in trade.

Thanks,

Andre`
