Good points, Adam
The T/C flintlock rifles I examined were excellent condition in and out. The gun shops that I usually visit will not accept rusted or pitted arms (muzzleloaders or otherwise). It does not pay. Poor quality guns are hard to sell and the customers tend to be dissatisfied. I think it is a good policy for everyone.
I have seen muzzleloaders that suffered from inadequate cleaning and would not accept them even if they were free. All the best...
