WTB: Looking for a Left Handed .50 Caliber Percussion Muzzleloader

[Splitear]

Just thought I'd throw out another net here. Our 4-H program has had an influx of left eye shooters this year, and we are looking to add another left handed percussion gun to our lot. We don't need anything fancy, just safe and reliable and affordable. All of our other guns are 50's, so we'd like to stay with that for simplicity sake. If you have one or know of someone who does that would like to part with it, please let me know. I'm willing to drive within a reasonable distance of Ballston Spa, or pay shipping. Thanks!

If you get a 54 I’ve got a couple packs of really nice Barnes expander mz bullets for you.

There's a 54 at the auction this month, but it just doesn't make sense to have an odd caliber for a program gun. Having all 50's keeps set-up simple. Thanks for the offer!

If you're looking to sell, send me a pm. That's a nice rifle, so it may be outside of our budget, but I can ask my committee.

I have a 54, what are you looking to get for the projectiles?

[Splitear]

We’re looking for a .50. All of our other program guns are .50 caliber, so keeping everything the same makes life easier and also prevents a kid from accidentally dropping a .50 caliber ball down a .54 caliber gun. We mainly shoot PRB.

Make me a reasonable offer and they’re yours. Where do you live?

It’s for youngsters at a 4H learning to shoot.  A donation is in order.

I don’t think you followed the thread. I offered it for 4H use at no cost but the cal was no good. For a private use request (as I quoted in my response), nothing wrong with covering my expense.

In Otto’s defense, it took me a moment to connect yours and biggamefish’s posts.

Otto needs no defense. He’s one of the classiest and most generous people on the forum

You are correct, I missed you were replying to biggamefish. My apologies.
