Bob was born 250 years too late. He would have fit in during the birth of this great country as he was an avid muzzleloader enthusiast . He used muzzleloaders for deer hunts, competition shooting, and buckskin jamborees. Bob has decided to sell off the majority of his vast collection. Here is a chance to own some pamphered and well maintained firearms. If you have any questions about any of these treasures, Bob is more than willing to talk to you. Contact the Auctioneer 309/242-0617 and he will provide Bob with your information. Most of these firearms were manufactured post 1898. Illinois requires residents to submit to a background check. Residents who want it shipped must provide FFL address. I think that is ridiculous but I don't write the laws. So... fees for background checks conducted by us is $10.00 per buyer only. $10.00 whether you purchase one or more...just 10.00. Out of state buyers can have muzzleloaders shipped direct except California, New York, or Massachusetts. Bidders from these states must have them shipped to FFL. Handling for firearms is $25.00 per package plus postage.
