Thompson / Center 50 Caliber BP rifle - 10/11/22 10:01 PM
The pics we took this morning will be posted whenever my wife can get them posted after spending 2+ hours on line trying to get the pictures posted like we can do with every other on line resaler we work with.
The T/C is not totally perfect but in better condition than I thought would be possible....just a lot of dirty hands have been on the rifle but all the hand prints and smudges came clean with only a modicum of effort & no sand paper or steel wool was used anywhere. All of the metal work shows very little if any corrosion after the stem to stern cleanup.
So $399 will be the asking Price now and when ever we can get pics posted here.
FYI I was told that the TC factory had burned many years ago and these are no longer made under the TC name...dunno for sure how accurate that is but a very knowledgeable retired gunsmith is who said that to me FWIW. We are open to meeting buyers on request if our schedule allows it, with in a 2-3 hour circle of Palestine.
