Had a buddy that was a traveling gun dealer.
He lived in MD, about 5 miles from the state line, and we used to
run around to gun shows together. Me a barely out of school broke ass kid,
He a retired Kelly Springfield tire builder. (Absolute best $$ blue collar job around)
He made a pile of money off used muzzleloader.
Pa only allowed flintlock, MD and WV allowed percussion.
Wayne would buy flinters cheap in those states, sell or trade them in Pa.
Caplocks were very cheap in Pa, but he did good in MD or WV.
He is gone now, along with most of the old dudes I ran around with.
