Well sometimes it pays to watch Craigs list. Yesterday morning I checked the sporting goods section and saw a Lyman Plains Pistol listed for $40. I knew from the pictures it wasn't a Lyman, but it is a Plains Pistol. Just a little while ago I took delivery of a CVA Plains Pistol, in .50 cal.. I actually gave him $50 for it, a pound of Pyrodex RS, a tube of TC Bore Butter, and about 20 lead balls.
There's a little light rust on the lock and hammer, and the woodwork doesn't look like it ever saw sandpaper, before being stained and varnished.
The barrel says it's .50 cal., with a 1 in 48 twist, but doesn't list the actual manufacturer. I think these were made by Jukar, though.
All in all, not too shabby.
