I am curious about what prices you all have encountered for heavies.
I was recently at a flea market where i found someone selling a heavy octagon target barrel. All that was there was the barrel, barrel plug, and front blade. The false muzzle was missing, as was the nipple and bolster. I plan to go back this weekend.

What do you think it is worth, or what do you think is a good price?

I went back to the flea market and bought the barrell. The seller also had some furniture that he threw in with it. Included with the barrel was a used lock, new trigger, old brass buttplate, new trigger guard, and a new nipple. I guess that this type of item is only worth as much as people like us are willing to pay for it.

I'm a it curious about this myself. Granted, the simplicity of the sharps is to be preferred, but is there anyone out there who makes one of these? Pedersoli (sp?) makes a heavy, but it doesn't really look like the Morgan-James. Can someone who's looked into this before put some resources up?
