The McCormick Camp is looking for used muskets. We are interested in forming an SVR unit, but my guys are new and some are just now getting their uniforms, so any good deals would be appreciated. Also, we have a new member who does a lot of buying and selling of original GAR items and so if you are looking for something. You can contact me and I will put you in touch with him
