So a coworker has offered me Pietta 1851 Confederate Navy Black Powder Revolver. I saw it today and it's in pretty good shape, no major dings or scraps but some wear for normal use. He is throwing in most of partial pound of 777, powder measure, flask, 50+ round balls, wads, and a partial tin of caps.
Assume good but not excellent condition what you you offer for this setup? Are there any major pitfalls with the brass framed 1851's?
For reference I am a big modern double action revolver shooter. I do have one other cap and ball revolver, a replica of a Spiller And Burr replica. So I an not a novice to cap and ball but I am far from an expert.
