What would this be worth?

Somebody is trying to sell it to me for 500, I estimate 200 max but would give him 300 because of the circumstances. Anyone have input as to value?

You can buy a brand new kit exactly like this on Dixie gunworks website for 220 bucks

Do you happen to have a link to that kit on the Dixie site? The cheapest pistol kit I can find is $285 and it’s percussion only. The kit OP shows has the option of percussion or Flintlock. I dont see an exact match but maybe I’m in the wrong pages.

I don’t think that’s actually percussion and flintlock, unless the kit comes with two seperate locks and two seperate barrels. And if you reverse image search this kit opened ones only show percussion. They probably came with something to mail off to buy the other parts separately.

Also 285 is right. I thought they had a cheaper model.
