Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

matt salmLook on some of the BP building sites or track of the wolf to get an idea on fair values. Tom Turpin is certainly not an unknown gunsmith. I would only value it a quality contemporary and go from there. There is a lot of work that goes into those guns, but I don't think the prices often reflect that very accurately. $1500-$2000 would be my guess.
Shoot straight, shoot often.

L. David KeithI bet your right Bill. I've gotten an estimate on building an identical gun and what the owner is selling it for is $2,500

birdhunter50If you like the gun you had better be buying it before it gets away. That gun is quality work and it would cost at least half that just to buy the parts and wood for it, and that's if you could find wood like that today at a good price!

larrysFor what it's worth, Jim Turpin, last I knew lived in Overland Park, Kansas instead of Missouri. He used to be a member of the Contemporary Longrifle Association. May still be. That rifle is still on their web site under him as the artisan.

Colin MastersI know nothing about muzzleloaders but I do know a little about wood. Quilted Birdseye Maple like that is rare! Simply beautiful.
