Jacksonville Levergunners

Any levergunners around s'here? There's a cowboy down in Orlando, but a 350mi round trip @ 6.5mph with $4+/gal fuel ain't appetizin'!

I know Duff L Bagg and RIHMFIRE are in Daytona ... a good way down I-95 from Jax. I'm across I-4 in Sanford which is just north of Orlando. I believe Rusty is farther on I-4 toward Tampa.

Not sure who's up I-95 near Jax.

Well, did see some leverguns. A Buffalo Bill Commemorative for $799, a Mdl 64 for $795, several post 64s for anywhere between $399 to $800, and one Mdl 94 "Antique" for $645. A few Marlins, mostly 336s, one 1895 and a Mdl 1887 .22. Asking prices were all over the place, from $250 to over $1,000! Several cheap doubles, and a few import Sharps, mostly asking Shiloh prices for all that!

I was hoping to get another set of molded ear plugs, but... there wasn't anyone there with the fixin's!

As usual, lots of EBRs and accessories, a good selection of cleaning supplies and some reloading components. But, @ $25/1,000 for primers I decided to let them collect some more dust. Others weren't tho'! So maybe prices are creeping upward again.

Sorry, no pics... no cameras allowed.
