WANTED/ISO Great Plains hunter

[DirtyDusty]

Would really like to get one of these in a cap lock 50cal. Not wanting to pay collectors prices. Will be used for hunting so not worried about condition, as long as it has a decent bore.

No sir, that’s a cva. I am looking for a lyman Great Plains hunter. Or the investment arm’s equivalent

 

[snapbang]

ok

 

[Idaho PRB]

Excellent choice. I simply LOVE mine. It goes BANG!, meat in the freezer. Stupid accurate.

I don't know whether this will help but the Gun Works in Springfield Oregon has GPH barrels for sale. I'm not sure whether they have any rifles left. They might. They bought the last of the Lymans a few months back.

If you are just looking for a good 50 cal percussion sidelock for hunting, check out the Traditions Deerhunter, it is a good, straight shooting rifle, 1:48 twist, good hi viz iron sights, but actually drilled and tapped if you want to mount a scope. Wood stock version is also available but more expensive. At that price, you don’t feel bad when it gets knocked around.
