Hello, me again,

below is the other BP musket, this one is the Navy Arms Import of one of the Antonio Zoli models. Can anyone identify the model of this one and a ball park value? I haven't cleaned either of them up yet so pardon the rust on the Zoli....

Thanks in advance,

now that makes sense, you can see where the bolster is recessed into the breach end of the barrel, not welded. now the bolster being brazed on to the barrel is the way they were done in the day, not the safest way but that is what they knew. i have seen originals where the bolster has a thin line of separation between it and the barrel. because of age it has started to separate. don't shoot!!
