Never got too excited about swivel breeches but I do like the PA rifle.  It just has a honest gun look about it.  Was bid to $500 and that seems like a good buy.  Not real crazy about their photos.  The repair "in front of the lock is not clearly shown and there looks like a repair behind the lock at the tang??

I won a pair of very small pistols in one of their auctions.  The shipping charge ended up being completely ridiculous!!!!  They do not have an in-house shipping department and you have to contact an outside shipper.  NEVER AGAIN!!!!

The Swivel is an Abraham Angstadt rifle, even with the restoration it's a good example of his work prior to his westward migration to Ohio / Indiana.
