I have an older GPR .50 flint that I bought while in high school that I think I paid around 350 for! The fit and finish were very good and it worked and shot well. Sadly, I ruined the original barrel with one of those "unbreakable" ram rods because I didnt know any better. It now wears a green mountain barrel and an LR lock, but it shot better with the original barrel when it was new..
Just this past October I ordered a .54 flint GPR and it was junk! Wood was proud of the metal work by A LOT!! I returned it for a full refund. I bought it on the reputation of my original GPR, but sadly, I agree wholeheartedly with the sentiments of this thread stating the newer ones have serious issues, and invest arms should be ashamed of putting out a product of such poor fit and finish!
